Case Study

Visualizing Operations Constraints in a Logistics Dashboard

Based on the scenario and your knowledge of the three-step graphing procedure for linear inequalities, recall and describe the rules required to graph the boundary and determine the shaded region for the inequality y>3xy > -3x. Specifically, your response must address the following:

  1. State whether the boundary line y=3xy = -3x should be drawn as a solid or dashed line, and recall the rule that dictates this choice.
  2. Explain why the coordinate point (0, 0) cannot be used as a test point for this inequality, and state an alternative test point that is suitable to use.
  3. Describe the rule for shading the correct side of the boundary line based on the outcome of your chosen test point.
