Question 215407:  Describe the graph resulting when graphing x + 3y < 12. 
  Give the boundary line equation: ___x + 3y = 12 ___________________ 
  Describe the boundary line graph using x intercept, y intercept, slope, slant, and indicate the quadrants the boundary line graph will pass through.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
13. Continuing to graph the inequality x + 3y < 12 from problem 12 above. 
 Describe how the boundary line would be graphed:  dashed or solid and why? 
Pick a test point to determine which side of the boundary line is to be shaded and why your point indicates this side.  The point: _________  Why?
 
______________________________________________________________ 
 
14. Finishing the graphing of the inequality from number 12, 
 Describe the shading in each quadrant:   
Q1:  ___________________ (none, partial, complete)

You can  put this solution on YOUR website! Describe the graph resulting when graphing x + 3y < 12. 
Give the boundary line equation: ___x + 3y = 12 ___________________ 
Describe the boundary line graph using x intercept, y intercept, slope, slant, and indicate the quadrants the boundary line graph will pass through.  
-------------- 
y = (-1/3)x+4 
Describe the boundary line graph using  
x intercept: Let y=0, then x= 12 
y intercept: Let x=0, then y = 4 
slope: m=-1/3 
slant: never heard of that one 
and indicate the quadrants the boundary line graph will pass through.  
Since the y-intercept is (0,4) and since the slope is negative, 
the boundary line passes thru II, I, and IV.

13. Continuing to graph the inequality x + 3y < 12 from problem 12 above. 
Describe how the boundary line would be graphed: dashed or solid and why? 
Ans: dashed because "equality" is not part of the original problem. 
----------------------------------- 
Pick a test point to determine which side of the boundary line is to be shaded and why your point indicates this side. The point: (0,0)_________ Why?  
(0,0) is not on the boundary line so it is a good test point.
