Question_12_incorrect_1

Question_12_incorrect_2

Question_12_incorrect_3

No real solution.

Explanation

Let's put the inequality in slope-intercept form to make it easier to graph:

The inequality is now in slope-intercept form. Graph a line with slope and y-intercept .

Because the inequality sign is greater than or equal to, a solid line should be used.

Next, test a point. The origin is good choice. Determine if the following statement is true:

The statement is false. Therefore, the section of the graph that does not contain the origin should be shaded.
