Step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.

answer:

given the linear inequality :

add 2y to both sides we get;

simplify:

add 12 to both sides of an equation;

simplify:

divide both sides by 2 we get;

or

the related equation for the inequality equation [1] is;

y-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the y-axis.

substitute x =0 in [2] to solve for y;

y = 6

x-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the x-axis.

substitute value y = 0 to solve for x;

subtract 6 from both sides we get

multiply both sides by 2 we get;

or

x = -12

now, plot these point (0, 6) and (-12, 0) on graph as shown below and shade the graph below the solid line.
