First graph the line \"y=3x\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"+graph%28+500%2C+500%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+-10%2C+10%2C3x%2B0%29+\" Graph of \"y=3x\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now plug in a test point (0,1) into the inequality \"y%3C3x\". Note: the test point should not be on the line.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y%3C3x\" Start with the given inequality.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"1%3C3%2A%280%29\" Plug in \"x=0\" and \"y=1\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"1%3C0\" Evaluate and simplify.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since the inequality is false, this means that we shade the entire region that does NOT contain the point (0,1)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "In other words, we simply shade the entire region that is below the line.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Graph of \"y%3C3x\" with the shaded region in green\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Note: since the graph has a less than sign \"<\", this means that the boundary line is a dotted line.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
