5x-2y%3E6+
-2y%3E-5x%2B6
y%3C%285%2F2%29x-3
First plot the line, y=%285%2F2%29x-3
graph%28300%2C300%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C%285%2F2%29x-3%29
Now choose a point not on the line.
(0,0) is convenient.
Check the ordered pair in the inequality.
If it's true, then shade the region containing (0,0).
Else, shade the region that doesn't contain (0,0).
5x-2y%3E6
5%280%29-2%280%29%3E6
0%3E6
False, shade the other region.
