Answer
To graph each inequality, follow these steps for each one:
1. **\( y < x - 3 \):** Draw the line \( y = x - 3 \) dashed and shade below it.
2. **\( y > x + 12 \):** Draw the line \( y = x + 12 \) dashed and shade above it.
3. **\( 2x + 2y < 18 \):** Simplify to \( x + y < 9 \), draw \( y = 9 - x \) dashed and shade below.
4. **\( y - 2 > -2(x - 1) \):** Simplify to \( y > -2x + 4 \), draw \( y = -2x + 4 \) dashed and shade above.
5. **\( 5x + y > 10 \):** Simplify to \( y > -5x + 10 \), draw \( y = -5x + 10 \) dashed and shade above.
6. **\( -24x + 8y \geq -48 \):** Simplify to \( y \geq 3x - 6 \), draw \( y = 3x - 6 \) solid and shade above.
7. **\( 2y + 6 \geq 0 \):** Simplify to \( y \geq -3 \), draw \( y = -3 \) solid and shade above.
8. **\( \frac{1}{2}x + 1 < 3 \):** Simplify to \( x < 4 \), draw \( x = 4 \) dashed and shade to the left.
9. **\( \frac{2}{3}x - \frac{10}{3} > -4 \):** Simplify to \( x > -1 \), draw \( x = -1 \) dashed and shade to the right.
Each inequality is graphed with the appropriate line type and shading based on the inequality sign.
Solution
1. For the inequality
\[
y < x - 3,
\]
write the boundary as
\[
y = x - 3.
\]
Because the inequality is strict (\(<\)), the line is drawn dashed. The region satisfying the inequality is the area below this line.
---
2. For the inequality
\[
y > x + 12,
\]
write the boundary as
\[
y = x + 12.
\]
Since the inequality is strict (\(>\)), use a dashed line, and shade the region above the line.
---
3. For the inequality
\[
2x + 2y < 18,
\]
divide both sides by 2 to obtain
\[
x + y < 9.
\]
The boundary line is
\[
x + y = 9,
\]
or written in slope–intercept form,
\[
y = 9 - x.
\]
Draw this line dashed (because of the \(<\) sign) and shade the region below it (points where \(x+y\) is less than 9).
---
4. For the inequality
\[
y - 2 > -2(x - 1),
\]
first expand the right–side:
\[
y - 2 > -2x + 2.
\]
Then add 2 to both sides:
\[
y > -2x + 4.
\]
The boundary line is
\[
y = -2x + 4,
\]
drawn dashed (since the inequality is strict). Shade the region above the line (where \(y\) is greater than \(-2x+4\)).
---
5. For the inequality
\[
5x + y > 10,
\]
solve for \(y\) by subtracting \(5x\):
\[
y > -5x + 10.
\]
The boundary line is
\[
y = -5x + 10.
\]
Since the inequality is strict (\(>\)), draw the line dashed and shade the region above it.
---
6. For the inequality
\[
-24x + 8y \geq -48,
\]
divide both sides by 8 (note that division by a positive number does not change the inequality):
\[
-3x + y \geq -6.
\]
Solve for \(y\) by adding \(3x\) to both sides:
\[
y \geq 3x - 6.
\]
The boundary line is
\[
y = 3x - 6.
\]
Because the inequality is non–strict (\(\geq\)), draw the line solid and shade the region above the line.
---
7. For the inequality
\[
2y + 6 \geq 0,
\]
solve for \(y\) by subtracting 6:
\[
2y \geq -6,
\]
and then dividing by 2:
\[
y \geq -3.
\]
The boundary is the horizontal line
\[
y = -3.
\]
Since the inequality is \(\geq\), draw it as a solid line and shade the region above the line.
---
8. For the inequality
\[
\frac{1}{2}x + 1 < 3,
\]
solve for \(x\). Subtract 1 from both sides:
\[
\frac{1}{2}x < 2.
\]
Multiply both sides by 2:
\[
x < 4.
\]
This inequality represents a vertical line at
\[
x = 4.
\]
Since the inequality is strict (\(<\)), draw the vertical line dashed and shade the region to the left of the line.
---
9. For the inequality
\[
\frac{2}{3}x - \frac{10}{3} > -4,
\]
first eliminate the denominators by multiplying the entire inequality by 3:
\[
2x - 10 > -12.
\]
Then add 10 to both sides:
\[
2x > -2.
\]
Divide by 2:
\[
x > -1.
\]
This gives a vertical boundary line at
\[
x = -1,
\]
drawn dashed because the inequality is strict, with the region to the right of the line being shaded.
