6. Graphing Linear Inequalities in Two Variables
Sign In
How do you determine which half-plane is to be shaded?
Error: The opposite half-plane should be shaded.
Correct Graph:
To graph the given inequality, we will begin by graphing the boundary line, y=3x−2. Note that since the inequality is not strict, the boundary line will be solid.
x=0, y=0
Zero Property of Multiplication
Subtract term
The error was shading the incorrect half-plane.
