\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 1: Graph the equation . Since the original inequality has a symbol and therefore the solution set will contain points on the line, construct the graph using a solid line.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 2: Pick a test point that is NOT on the line. Since this line does not pass through the origin, the point (0,0) is an excellent choice.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 3: Substitute the coordinates from the point you selected in the previous step for the variables in your original inequality. Perform any necessary arithmetic.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 4: If the result of step 3 is a true statement, shade in the half-plane that contains the test point. If the result is a false statement, shade in the half-plane that does NOT contain the test point.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Your solution set is the shaded area. Since the line is solid, points on the line are included in the solution set.\r
