Graph the line y=3x-1
.
.
graph%28300%2C300%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C3x-1%29
Then choose a point not on the line.
(0,0) is a convenient choice.
Test the inequality.
If the inequality is satisfied shade the region containing (0,0).
If the inequality is not satisifed, shade the region not containing (0,0).
y%3E=3x-1
0%3E=3%280%29-1
0%3E-1
True shade the region containing (0,0).
