The inequality is .

Rewrite the inequality.

                      (Original inequality)

      (Subtract from each side)

                   (Apply additive inverse property: )

Step 1:

The boundary of the graph is the graph of .

Since the inequality symbol is , the boundary line is solid.

is less than , so the region greater than is shaded.

Step 2:

Consider a test point as .

The statement is true.

Shade the inequality containing the point .
