You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The procedure is the same.
\n" ); document.write( "If you find a variable value or two
\n" ); document.write( "values for an inequality statement,
\n" ); document.write( "substitute those values for the variable(s)
\n" ); document.write( "and see if you get a true statement.
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Example:
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 4y >6
\n" ); document.write( "y > (-3/4)x + (3/2)
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Question:
\n" ); document.write( "Is (0,0) part of the solution?
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute to get 0 > (-3/4)*0+(3/2)
\n" ); document.write( "0 > 3/2
\n" ); document.write( "That is false so (0,0) is not part of the solution.
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Is (0,5) part of the solution?
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute to get 5 > (-3/2)*0+(3/2)
\n" ); document.write( "5 > (3/2)
\n" ); document.write( "That is true so (0,5) is part of the solution.
\n" ); document.write( "========================
