Question 1132227: 1. Graph the inequality, indicating the solution set with crosshatching or shading. Explain how you determined where to draw the line and shade the area that represents the solution set.
X + 2y<=6

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x+%2B+2y%3C=6
First, we need to draw the line x+%2B+2y=6
you need two points to do it
x|y
0|3->0%2B+2y=6->+y=6%2F2->+y=3
6|0->x%2B+2%2A0=6->x=6



since you are given x+%2B+2y%3C=6, your solution is a line including the area below the line
so, you need to draw a solid line and shade the area below the line
