Answer:
We want to graph the inequality:
3x - 2y ≤ 6
The first step is to write this as a linear equation, to do it, we can isolate y in one side of the inequality.
3x ≤ 6 + 2y
3x - 6 ≤ 2y
(3/2)x - 6/2 ≤ y
(3/2)x - 3 ≤ y
or:
y ≥ (3/2)x - 3
Because we have the symbol ≥
The points on the line are solutions, then the first part is to graph the line:
y = (3/2)*x - 3
Next, we have:
y equal to or larger than (3/2)*x - 3
Then we need to shade all the region above that line.
The graph can be seen below.
