You can put this solution on YOUR website!
graph the inequality;
y is less than -5/2x +4
------
You never graph an inequality directly;
you graph the boundary of the inequality,
which is always an equality.
-----
Graph y = (-5/2)x+4 as a dashed line.
Shade the half-plane BELOW the boundary
because you want y to be LESS Than (-5/2)x+4.
