How do you graph 3x-2y is greater than or equal to -6
---------------------
3x-2y >= -6
Solve for "y":
2y <= 3x+6
y <= (3/2)x+3
--------------------
1st: graph the boundary which is y = (3/2)x+3
graph%28400%2C300%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C%283%2F2%29x%2B3%29
---------------------------
2nd: The inequality requires y to be LESS THAN the
boundary y-values; so shade the half-plane BELOW the boundary.
