You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First graph the line \"x-y=8\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=x-8\"
\n" ); document.write( "Here the slope is \"m=1\" and the y-intercept is \"y=-8\".
\n" ); document.write( "So one point is (0,-8).
\n" ); document.write( "Since the slope is 1, change in y over change in x is one.
\n" ); document.write( "So to get another point add (1,1) to the intercept.
\n" ); document.write( "(0,-8)+(1,1)=(1,-7)
\n" ); document.write( "Now that you have two points, you can plot the line.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "OK, so now pick a point not on the line. (0,0) is convenient.
\n" ); document.write( "Test the inequality.
\n" ); document.write( "If the inequality is true, shade the region containing (0,0).
\n" ); document.write( "If the inequality is false, shade the region that doesn't contain (0,0).
\n" ); document.write( "\"x-y%3E8\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"0-0%3E8\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"0%3E8\"
\n" ); document.write( "False, so shade the region not containing (0,0).
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
