You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Solve it just as if it was;
x+2y=2
Don't let the inequality sign scare you.
After it is solved put the inequality sign back, when you graph the line would be dotted and the area below the line would be shaded.
To solve it, you choose values for x and solve for y, or you can put it in slope-intercept form.:)
