Operations Management: Feasible Resource Boundary Verification

Based on the linear inequality 2x3y<6{}2x - 3y < 6 used in your scheduling system, list and describe the three-step procedure required to graph this constraint. In your response, clearly state:

  1. The equation of the boundary line and whether it should be plotted as a solid or dashed line, explaining the rule that dictates this choice.
  2. The standard coordinates of the simplest test point to verify, the substitution of these coordinates into the inequality, and whether this point satisfies the inequality (is a solution).
  3. The shading rule applied based on the test point outcome, and which half-plane (above or below the boundary line) must be shaded on the coordinate grid.
