You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"+y+%3C+-1x%2F3+%2B+0+\"$ in point slope form.
\n" ); document.write( "slope = m = -1/3
\n" ); document.write( "y-int = b = 0\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "your first point is the origin, since the intercept is 0
\n" ); document.write( "using the slope of -1/3 .... go DOWN one point and then to the right 3 points
\n" ); document.write( "you should now be at (3,-1)
\n" ); document.write( "starting back at the origin ... go UP 1 and to the left 3
\n" ); document.write( "you should now be at (-3, 1)
\n" ); document.write( "Draw the line that connects the three points.
\n" ); document.write( "since this is NOT and equality, the line is dotted, not solid.
\n" ); document.write( "chose a point NOT on the line ... such as (1,1) plug it in to the equation.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+y+%3C+-1x%2F3+%2B+0+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+1+%3C+-1%281%29%2F3+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+1+%3C+-1%2F3+\"$ this is a FALSE statement.
\n" ); document.write( "shade the other side of the line.
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
