Answer: The graph is attached.

Explanation:

The Slope-Intercept form of the equation of the line is:


y=mx+b

Where "m" is the slope of the line and "b" is the y-intercept.

When the line passes through the origin:


b=0

Then:


y=mx

The exercise gives you the following Inequality:


y\geq (1)/(2)x

You can identify that line is:


y=(1)/(2)x

As you can notice, the line passes through the origin and its slope is:


m=(1)/(2)

The symbol
\geq indicates that the line is solid and the shaded region must be over the line.

Knowing the above, you can graph the Inequality (Observe the graph attached).
