How do I solve and graph
6y + 8 < 32
subtract 8 from both sides
6y < 32 - 8
6y < 24
divide both sides by 6
y < 24/6
y < 4
:
Y is less than 4, let y=3, and see if that is true in the original problem
6(3) + 8 < 32
18 + 8 < 32
26 < 32 is true

The graph is a horizontal line
+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-6%2C+5%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+4%29+
Shade the area below the line but not on the line
