x – 2y less than or equal to 4
x greater than or equal to 1
.
1) put each equation where the y is by itself. (for this step, i'm going to just use a < or > knowing that it is also equal to)
.
x - 2y < 4
-2y < -x + 4 -----the next step, your going to divide by a -2, when this
y > x - 2 ------done, the sign must change directions
.
.
x > 1 ----- this will be a vertical line at 1
.
.
Graph these as lines. Because they are greater than AND equal to, they will have a solid line. Here's the graph:
