 3x+y<3

You can put this solution on YOUR website! First solve for y in each equation and get into slope intercept form 
 x+2y>-2
 
 2y > -x-2
 
 y > -(1/2)x-2/2
 
 y > -(1/2)x-1
 
 -------------------------------
 
 3x+y < 3
 
 y < - 3x + 3
 
 ======================================
 
 So after solving for y, we get
 
 y > -(1/2)x-1
 y < - 3x + 3
 
 Now graph the inequalities separately
 
 To graph the inequality y > -(1/2)x-1, first graph the line y = -(1/2)x-1.
 
 Make this line a dashed line.
 
 Then shade above the dashed line.
 
 ---------------------------------------------
 
 To graph the inequality y < - 3x + 3, first graph the line y = - 3x + 3.
 
 Make this line a dashed line.
 
 Then shade below the dashed line.
 
 The final solution region will be the overlapping portion of the two individual shaded regions
