Algebra.Com's Answer #50158 by stanbon(75887) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The question asks to graph the linear inequalities. Then write three ordered pairs that are solutions to the inequality. \n" ); document.write( "5x-6y> 18 \n" ); document.write( "--------- \n" ); document.write( "When graphing INEQUALITIES you first must graph the corresponding EQUALITY \n" ); document.write( "which is the boundary of the inequality. \n" ); document.write( "Graph 6y<5x-18, which is \n" ); document.write( "y<(5/6)x-3 \n" ); document.write( "You need two points to graph the equality y=(5/6)x-3 \n" ); document.write( "If x=0, y=-3 giving you point (0,-3) \n" ); document.write( "--------- \n" ); document.write( "If x=6, y=2 giving you point (6,2) \n" ); document.write( "Plot those two points and draw a dotted or dashed line thru them. \n" ); document.write( "Because you want y LESS THAN (5/6)x-3 shade the half-plane BELOW \n" ); document.write( "the dotted line. \n" ); document.write( "That is the graph you want. \n" ); document.write( "Now, find 3 points in the solution set of y<(5/6)x-3 \n" ); document.write( "Consider the point that were on the line: (0,-3) and (6,2) \n" ); document.write( "Pick some points where the x-value is the same but the y is \"less than\". \n" ); document.write( "EG: (0,-10),or (0,-100), (6,0), or (6,1) \n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps. \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( ".\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
