I'm a general math idiot

[themadpoker]

Anyone on my f-list good at math? Working on my homework and I have no clue how to graph inequalities (when it's like y>6+x). *_* I should've asked for more explanation when I was in class.

But since I don't know x does that mean I should just put the y-intercept as 6? That's the part that confused me.

Yup! The standard way to graph a line, given the equation y = mx + b (where the values of m and b are given) is that the slope of the line is m and the y-intercept is b. In the case of y = 6 + x, m = 1 and b = 6.

Thank you! :)
