\n" ); document.write( "on the question that i'm trying to answer, it gives me 4 of the same equations, and asks which one is graphed at the right. the graph that they show is at (-3,1 1/2), and shaded above the line with a straight line. all four of the equations that are given are the same except that the sign in the middle changes to something like <, or > , or those with lines underneath them. Sorry if this is confusing to you, but it is really confusing to me.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
2x-4y>-6 needs to be re-written into the form y=mx+c, so\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2x+6>4y... or re-written, 4y<2x+6
\n" ); document.write( "--> y\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So, the straight line has a gradient of 1/2 and passes through the y-axis at 3/2.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The question wants to know where y is less than x/2+3/2. By intuition, the line tells you the points where y EQUALS x/2+3/2, and so (hopefully, you can see that all the space below the line is where y is less than the line...so this is the region you require.\r
