To graph \n" ); document.write( "y ≥ 3x \n" ); document.write( "we plot a solid point at (0, 0), since the y-intercept is 0. \n" ); document.write( "From there we go up 3 and over 1, since the slope is 3, and plot another point...then connect them with a solid line... \n" ); document.write( "Now we have to shade one side or the other...let's test the point (1, 0), that is if x = 1 and y = 0, does it make the inequality true? \n" ); document.write( "Since 0 is not ≥ 3, we shade the half-plane on the other side of the line from (1, 0) and we're done... \n" ); document.write( " |
