\"y%3C%281%2F2%29x+%2B+1\"
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Start with intercepts
\n" ); document.write( "y intercept, b, is 1 : Plot (0,1)
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "x intercept is where y = 0
\n" ); document.write( "0 = \"%281%2F2%29x+%2B+1\"
\n" ); document.write( "-1 = \"1%2F2\"x
\n" ); document.write( "2(-1) = x
\n" ); document.write( "x = -2 : Plot (-2,0)
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "So far the table is
\n" ); document.write( "x | y
\n" ); document.write( "0 | 1
\n" ); document.write( "-2 | 0
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "choose any arbitary number for x and solve for y
\n" ); document.write( "y = \"%281%2F2%29x+%2B+1\"
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "If x is 2, y = \"1%2F2\"(2) + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2
\n" ); document.write( "Plot (2,2)
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "If x is 4, y = \"1%2F2\"(4) + 1 = 2+1 = 3
\n" ); document.write( "Plot (4,3)
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "and so on
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "When you draw the line, draw a DASHED line, so as to NOT include the points on the line.
\n" ); document.write( "Shade the area below the line since the inequality says y is <, less than.
