You can put this solution on YOUR website! x – 3y > 6 [Re-write in the slope-intercept format by solving for y]
-3y>-x+6
-3y/-3<-x/-3+6/-3 [Switch the sign when multiplying or dividing by a negative number]
.
y<1/3x-2
The y-intercept is (0, -2)
The x-intercept is (6, 0)
The slope is (1/3)
Graphing: Draw a dashed boundary line and shade all of the points below the dashed line.
.
3x + 2y > 12 [Re-write in the slope-intercept format by solving for y]
2y>-3x+12
2y/2>-3/2x+12/2
y>-3/2x+6
The y-intercept is (0,6)
The x-intercept is (4, 0)
Graphing: Draw a dashed line and shade all of the points above the dahsed line.
