You can put this solution on YOUR website!
graphing linear inequalities. -4y > 3x-12
-----------------
Solve for y:
y < (-3/4)x+3
First you need to graph the boundary of the inequality
which is y = (-3/4)x+3
graph%28400%2C300%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C%28-3%2F4%29x%2B3%29
This line should be graphed as a dashed line because it
is not part of the solution.
------------
Second: Shade the half-plane BELOW the boundary because
you want y LESS THAN the boundary condition.
This shaded area is the graph of the inequality.
