Put it in the form of y =mx +b, or in this instance, y> mx +b\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "move the (1/2) x to the right by adding it to both sides of the inequality\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(1/3)y>(1/2)x +2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply by 3 on both sides to get y by itself.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y>(3/2) x +6\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "This is a graph with y intercept of (0,6) and a moderate upward and to the right slope. Because it is > , the line on the graph will NOT be part of the solution.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The easiest way to find the side of the graph that the inequality satisfies is to use (0,0) and see if it works or doesn't work. In the original equation, 0-0>2 does NOT work, so the area where the inequality works is to the up and left of the graph, which should be a dotted line to show that the inequality is greater than only.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The point (6,-2) should work.
\n" ); document.write( "Test it. 6*(1/3)-(-2)*(1/2)>0 ; 2-(-1)=3, and 3>2 It does work.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The point (6,2) should not work\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Test it. 6 *(1/3)-2(1/2)=2-1 ; 1 is NOT >2, so it does not work.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If the graph goes through the origin, then pick a point near the graph with a small x or y.\r
