To graph the solution set of the inequality 1/2y < -3, multiply both sides of the inequality by 2 to get y < -6. On the number line, draw an open circle at -6 and shade the region to the left.
To graph the solution set of the inequality 1/2y < -3, we need to represent the values of y that satisfy the inequality on a number line.
We start by isolating y.
We can do this by multiplying both sides of the inequality by 2 to get y < -6.
Next, we represent this on a number line by drawing an open circle at -6 and shading the region to the left since any value less than -6 satisfies the inequality.
