The required graph of the inequality 3x - 2y ≥ 12 is attached
Some features of the inequality graph
The inequality can be represented as a straight line equation in slope intercept form:
The slope intercept form of the equation is equation having the form:
y = mx + c
where
m is the slope
c is the y-intercept
Rewriting the equation to slope intercept form
3x - 2y ≥ 12
Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation
-2y ≥ 12 - 3x
Divide both sides with -2
y ≤ -6 + 3/2 x
We can say that:
- the slope of the line is 3/2,
- the y intercept of -6 and
- the shading is below the line, since the inequality is less than
