3x-2y<=6
Since 3x does not contain the variable to solve for, move it to the right-hand side of the inequality by subtracting 3x from both sides.
-2y<=-3x+6
Divide each term in the inequality by -2.
-(2y)/(-2)>=-(3x)/(-2)+(6)/(-2)
Simplify the left-hand side of the inequality by canceling the common factors.
y>=-(3x)/(-2)+(6)/(-2)
Simplify the right-hand side of the inequality by simplifying each term.
y>=(3x)/(2)-3
