Question 135368: A food chemist tests enzymesfor their ability to break down pectin in fruit juices (Dennis Callas). Excess pectin makes juice cloudy. In ine test, the chemist measures the concentration of the enzyme, c, in miligrams per milliliter and the fration of light absorbed by the liquid, a,. If a > 0.07c +0.02, then the enzyme is working as should. Graph the inequality in the first quadrant.

a > 0.07c +0.02, then the enzyme is working as should. Graph the inequality in the first quadrant.
---------------------------
Graph a = 0.07c + 0.02 which is the boundary of the inequality.
Graph is as a dashed line because equality is not stated as a
condition in the problem.

-----------------------------
Shade the half-plane ABOVE the bounday since you want a GREATER
than 0.07c+0.02.
