2x-3y <= -6
2x+6 <= 3y
3y >= 2x+6
y >= 2/3 x + 2
Here the slope (m=2/3) is positive and intercepting the y-axis at y=2. Hence the line will go thru Quadrant III, II, and I.
So the answer is E i.e. Quadrant II
I am sure, you mean, answer E, i.e. Quadrant
IV right??
Anyways, another way to solve this problem is by substituting values.
Lets take Quadrant IV first. In quadrant IV, x value is always positive and y value is always negative. Lets take (1, -1)
so the equation becomes,
2(1) - 3(-1)
= 2 + 3
= 5,
which is clearly does not satisfy our condition.
Just to be sure, we can plugin other values. We can see that it will always be positive.
Hence, Answer is E
