You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I can't get this program to graph inequalities, but I'll try and talk you through it.
3y-5x%3E=15
Solve the inequality for y:
3y-5x%2B5x%3E=5x%2B15
3y%3E=5x%2B15
3y%2F3%3E=%285%2F3%29x%2B15%2F3
y%3E=%285%2F3%29x%2B5
Let x=0 and y=?
y%3E=%285%2F3%29%280%29%2B5
y%3E=5
Plot (0,5)
Let x=3 and y=?
y%3E=%285%2F3%29%283%29%2B5
y%3E=%2815%2F3%29%2B5
y%3E=5%2B5
y%3E=10
Plot (3,10)
Connenct the points.
Because y is greater than or = to the line shade above the line.
The line without shading looks like:
