Step 1You start by simplifying the equation so that y is the only term on the LHS.This is done by multiplying both sides by -1. When multiplying (or dividing) by a negative number, the &quot;is less than or equal to&quot; sign is flipped and becomes &quot;is greater than or equal to&quot;.      -    y    ≤    3    x    -    5        y    ≥    -    3    x    +    5  Now, you treat it as if it would be a &#039;normal&#039; equation:      y    =    -    3    x    +    5  After graphing, this, you &#039;color&#039; everything above the line, as all the points above the line       y    =    -    3    x    +    5   also meet       y    ≥    -    3    x    +    5   . Recall that       y    ≥    -    3    x    +    5   is equivalent to       -    y    ≤    3    x    -    5   .
