Question

Draw the graph of the solution set of x < y.

Answer 1

The given inequality is x< y.

Step 1: Consider in equation as strict equation i.e. x = y

Step 2: Find the points on x-axis and y axis i.e

x	1	2	-1	-2
y	1	2	-1	-2

Step 3: Plot the graph using the above table.

Step 4: Take a point (1, 1) and put it in the given inequation (i), we get 1 > 1, which is false, so shaded region will be away from the origin

Here, shaded region shows the inequality x < y.
