In graphing inequalities, the first thing to do is graph the equation first irregardless of the inequality symbol. In the given problem, the equation to be graphed is f(x) = 2/9x + 3. Since it has a general form of y=mx + b, this is a linear function. Plot the graph by assigning arbitrary points of x, then you get the corresponding f(x) values. Graph the x values against the f(x) values. The blue line the attached picture will be formed.

Next, you solve the equation by finding x. Just don't mind the inequality symbol:

2/9 x + 3 > 4 5/9

2/9x > 4 5/9 - 3

2/9x > 14/9

x > 14/9 ÷ 2/9

x > 7

Hence, the value of x must be greater than 7. To show this in the graph, find the line where x=7. Create a partition using that line, then shade the rest of the portion where x is greater than 7 until infinity.
