### Linear Inequality Graph Interpretation
The graph provided represents the linear inequality \(y \leq \frac{2}{3}x\).
#### Description:
1. **Axes and Grid**:
- **X-Axis (Horizontal)**: The range is from -5 to 5.
- **Y-Axis (Vertical)**: The range is from -6 to 4.
- The graph is constructed on a Cartesian coordinate plane with grid lines.
2. **Equation Line**:
- The boundary of the inequality is marked by the line \(y = \frac{2}{3}x\). This line passes through multiple points on the graph:
- \((0, 0)\) (Origin)
- \((3, 2)\)
- \((6, 4)\) (Note: this point is not part of the visible graph range)
- The slope of the line is positive, indicating that as x increases, y also increases proportionately.
3. **Shaded Region**:
- The area below the line \(y = \frac{2}{3}x\) is shaded, indicating that the inequality \(y \leq \frac{2}{3}x\) includes all points in this region.
- This shaded region encompasses points where the y-value is less than or equal to \(\frac{2}{3}\) of the corresponding x-value.
#### Interpretation:
The shaded region of this graph contains all solution points for the inequality \(y \leq \frac{2}{3}x\). Any point in this shaded area is a valid solution to the inequality. Points on the boundary line \(y = \frac{2}{3}x\) are also included in the solution set, as indicated by the "less than or equal to" (≤) in the inequality.
#### Educational Application:
Understanding how to graph linear inequalities is crucial for solving many algebraic problems and understanding their solutions. This example provides a clear visual representation of how a linear inequality divides the plane into a region comprising all its solutions.
