Answer:
y > 1/2x - 1
First, draw the dashed line y = 1/2x - 1 (slope intercept ; y = mx + b).
Start at -1 on the y-axis, and continue going 2 units to the right, and 1 unit up for the right side of the graph.
Then starting at -1 on the y-axis, continue going 2 units to the left, and 1 unit down for the left side of the graph.
Explanation:
Convert standard form (Ax + By = C) by isolating y from the rest of the equation.
Ax + By = C → y = -Ax/B + C/B → y = mx + b.
Given a standard form equation in inequality form,
x - 2y < 2.
Set it to slope-intercept as an inequality to find the slope and y-intercept.
When negating (making opposite) a variable, you flip the inequality.
x - 2y < 2 → x - 2y - x < 2 - x → -2y < -x + 2 → 2y > x - 2 → <u>y > 1/2x - 1</u><u>.</u>
