For the inequality 2x+3y>6
Put equation into the slope/intercept form and Graph it
3y > -2x + 6
y > -2%2F3x + 2
:
+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-5%2C+5%2C+-8%2C+10%2C+%28-2%2F3%29x+%2B+2%29+
what is the
A. slope
From the slope intercept equation you can see the slope = -2/3
:
B. direction of the line (rise or fall, left to right)
It's negative slope (& the graph) tells us it falls, going from left to right
:
C. dotted or solid line
The sign > (not =)means it's a dotted line
:
D. shadowing above or below the line
The sign > tells us the shadowing should be above the line.
