The inequality you gave appears to be one-dimensional. If it is two-dimensional, then y has no restriction. Only x would have some restriction. You COULD test for the point (0, 0), but you would essentially be testing only for the x value. If the point (6, -5) is tested, then the y=-5 part makes no difference. It is the x=6 part that will either make the inequality of \"4x-3%3E=0\" either true or false. \n" ); document.write( "
