Step 1Treat the manipulation the same way you would a normal equation.Add 6 to both sides                    p        -        6                              +            6                                                                         ≥                                                       3                              +            6                              But   −  6  +  6  =  0      p    +    0                               ≥    9  Step 2I know that they use the variable p but you would plot this the same way as you would       y    ≥    9  So the graph represents the equivalent of all the values of y that are greater than or equal to 9 no matter what value of xAs the &#039;p&#039; may take on the value of 9 you use a solid line.Just for a moment, suppose p could not take on the value of 9             (      p      &amp;gt;      9      )       then the line would need to be dotted to indicate this condition
