Given: Graph 3x > 2x-4
Solution:
Step-1: 3x > 2x-4
Step-2: 3x-2x > -4
Step-3: x > -4
Check: X=-3 ---> -9 > -10 Yes
Check again: X=0 ----> 0 > -4 Yes
Check again: X=-5 ----> -15 > -14 No (proves our "x > -4" solution still true)
Graphing: x > -4
step-1: start with X-Y grid
Step-2: draw vertical dotted line at X=-4 (parallel to Y-axis)
Step-3: Show that everything to the right of dotted line (greater than X=-4)
