Question

how do you graph the inequality in the coordinate plane -y<-2

Answer 1

first you will want to have a positive y, so do you know how to make it non-negative on the left side?

Answer 2

to make -y, into y,
\[-y <-2\]
\[\frac{ -y }{ -1 }<\frac{ -2 }{ -1 }\]
when you get to this step, please remember when you are dividing by any negative number, the signs change, so if it was less than, then it will become greater than after you divide by a negative number
\[y >2\]

Answer 3

now you have a simpler form of the inequality, if y is greater than 2,(note:it is strictly GREATER than 2, not greater than or equal to 2) so therefore a dashed line will interpret that 2 is not in the solution

Answer 4

now y is greater than 2, so which part of the graph will u shade, remember y is GREATER than 2!
