Answer:

the graph in the attached figure

Explanation:

we have


7x+3y<6-5x

isolate the variable y

Subtract 7x both sides


3y<6-5x-7x


3y<-12x+6

Divide by 3 both sides


y<-4x+2

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area below the dashed line

The equation of the shaded line is
y=-4x+2

The slope of the dashed line is negative
m=-4

The y-intercept of the dashed line is the point
(0,2)

The x-intercept of the dashed line is the point
(0.5,0)

To graph the inequality plot the intercepts and shade the area below the dashed line

using a graphing tool
