4x - 2y ≤ 6 subtract 4x from both sides

-2y ≤ -4x + 6 change the signs

2y ≥ 4x - 6 divide both sides by 2

y ≥ 2x - 3

y = 2x - 3 - it's a linear function. We need only two points to plot the graph.

Choose any two values of x and calculate the values of y:

for x = 0 → y = 2(0) - 3 = 0 - 3 = -3 → (0, -3)

for x = 2 → y = 2(2) - 3 = 4 - 3 = 1 → (2, 1)
