\n" ); document.write( "Graph the inequality x+5y>5 using the slope and intercept method. i have solved this problem and got 0>5 and slope of -1/5 and y intercept of 1, my only problem is to decide whether to shade above or below. i have read the explanations given on the algebra.com, but im still having trouble understanding it. can you please explain it to me in a more simpler way considering this example along with it. thanks fatma
