You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The \"or =\" just means to make the graph with a SOLID line, which means that the line itself is included. \r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "In my opinion the easiest way to graph this is to use the intercepts method and graph the line with an \"=\" sign only. We can handle the \">\" sign later:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"4x+%2By=4\"
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = 0, then y=4.
\n" ); document.write( "Let y = 0, then 4x = 4, so x = 1. Graph these two points, and remember that if you have a POSITIVE Y-coefficient, the \">\" or \">+\" means to shade ABOVE the line. If you have a \"<\" or \"<=\" then it means to shade BELOW the line. \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "In this case you will have to graph with a SOLID line, and shade ABOVE the line. I don't know how to do this in algebra.com graphing so I'll graph the line, and YOU make it a SOLID LINE and SHADE ABOVE the line:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"graph+%28300%2C300%2C+-6%2C6%2C+-6%2C6%2C+-4x%2B4%29+\"\r
