Hi
the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line: y = mx + b
where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.
x - y > 7
x - 7 > y |adding y and subtracting 7 from both sides of inequality
y < x-7 |standard form for line y = x-7, slope m = 1/1 and y-intecept is Pt(0,-7)
I. graphing y = x-7 |Note: as y increases/decreases by 1, x increases/decreases by 1

II. shading the graph appropriately: area under the line(not including the line)
