You can put this solution on YOUR website!
5x+%2B+4y+%3E+10
4y%3E-5x%2B10
y%3E-%285%2F4%29x%2B5%2F2
First plot the line, y=-%285%2F4%29x%2B5%2F2

graph%28300%2C300%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C-%285%2F4%29x%2B5%2F2%29

Now choose a point not on the line and test the inequality.
(0,0) is convenient.
5%280%29%2B4%280%29%3E10
0%3E10
False, so (0,0) is not in the solution region. Shade the other region.
