Pre-Algebra Examples

$y < 3 - x^{2}$

Step 1

Reorder $3$ and $- x^{2}$ .

$y < - x^{2} + 3$

Step 2

The equation is not linear, so a constant slope does not exist.

Not Linear

Step 3

Graph a dashed line, then shade the area below the boundary line since $y$ is less than $- x^{2} + 3$ .

$y < - x^{2} + 3$
