Graphing Linear Inequalities in Two Variables

Question

Graph the following linear inequality: y > 4/3x − 3. Would I solve for y or x, or do I only need to graph as is?

Answer 1

Typically what you would do for this sort of a problem is graph the line y=4/3x - 3 as a dotted line (to show that it's not part of the solution), and then shade in the area on the graph that matches the expression.
