Transcript text: Graph the linear inequality.
\[
y<3
\]
Use the graphing tool on the right to graph the inequality.
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify the inequality
The given inequality is \( y < 3 \).
Step 2: Draw the boundary line
To graph the inequality \( y < 3 \), first draw the boundary line \( y = 3 \). Since the inequality is strict (less than), use a dashed line to indicate that points on the line are not included in the solution.
Step 3: Shade the appropriate region
Shade the region below the dashed line \( y = 3 \) because the inequality is \( y < 3 \). This represents all the points where the y-coordinate is less than 3.
Final Answer
The graph of the inequality \( y < 3 \) consists of a dashed horizontal line at \( y = 3 \) with the region below this line shaded.
