Algebra.Com's Answer #68385 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! graph this inequality. \n" ); document.write( "y >= 3x \n" ); document.write( "---------------- \n" ); document.write( "It sounds like you have graphed the line y = 3x. \n" ); document.write( "That is part of the solution and it is the boundary \n" ); document.write( "of the inequality. \n" ); document.write( "---------------------- \n" ); document.write( "To determine where the graph of the inequality is you \n" ); document.write( "should select a test point that is not on the line, \n" ); document.write( "like (1,1) \n" ); document.write( "--------------- \n" ); document.write( "Test the x and y values of the test point in the inequality as follows: \n" ); document.write( "1 > 3*1 \n" ); document.write( "That is false. \n" ); document.write( "So shade the half-plane that does NOT contain (1,1). \n" ); document.write( "--------------- \n" ); document.write( "Comment: That half-plane should be above the line y=3x. \n" ); document.write( "=================== \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
