Answer:

See attachment for graph.

Explanation:

When graphing inequalities:

  • < or > : dashed lines.
  • ≤ or ≥ : solid line.
  • < or ≤ : shade under the line.
  • > or ≥ : shade above the line.

Given inequality:


x-2y\geq -12

Rearrange the equation to isolate y:


\implies x-2y+2y\geq -12+2y


\implies x\geq -12+2y


\implies x+12\geq -12+2y+12


\implies x+12\geq 2y


\implies 2y\leq x+12


\implies (2y)/(2)\leq (x+12)/(2)


\implies y\leq (1)/(2)x+6

Find two points on the line by substituting two values of x into "y=":


x=0 \implies y=(1)/(2)(0)+6=0 \implies (0,6)


x=8 \implies y=(1)/(2)(8)+6=10 \implies (8,10)

Plot the points and draw a straight solid line through them.

As the inequality is "y ≤", shade below the line.
