Using the given inequality, sort the points out as possible solutions and not possible solutions: -4y>2x+42x+4"> Possible (-2, -2) (-1, -1) (2, -3) (-7, 2) Not Possible (-2, 0) (0, 0) (3, 0) (-5, 3) Choose the correct word(s) to fill in the blanks and complete your notes Solving and graphing linear inequalities is similar to solving and graphing linear equations.There are 2 differences to be aware of when using the <, >, ≥ , or ≤ symbols.1.Determine what type of line to graph. - A dashed lineis used when the inequality uses the < and > symbols. - A solid lineis used when the inequality uses the ≥ and ≤ symbols.2. Just like graphing inequalities on a number line, shade on the graph to visually signify all of the possible solutions to the inequality.To determine what side of the line to shade, use a test pointthat does not lie on the line.Substitute the x and y coordinates into the original inequality. If the statement holds true, shade that side of the graph containing the test point. Sketch the graph of the linear inequality. Sketch the graph of the linear inequality. Match the Inequality to its matching inequality (solved for y) x-y>-1 y-5 y>-2x-5 3x-3y≤3 y≥x-1 Sketch the graph of the linear inequality. Sketch the graph of the linear inequality.
