Find the solutions that satisfy the following constraints:
a. 4A + 2B <16 (this is less than)
b. 4A + 2B >16 (this is greater than)
c. 4A + 2B =16
-------------
Graph the equality first;
B = -2A + 8

---------------------------
The graph of 4A + 2B < 16 is the half-plane BELOW the line.
--------
The graph of $A + 2B > 16 is the half-plane ABOVE the line.
