Since the inequality being solved is Y1 � Y2, the solution is where the graph of Y1 is �on the top� and Y2 is �on the bottom.�

The point of intersection is (1.4, 3.6). Since the shaded region is to the left of x = 1.4, the solution to the inequality 3(4 - 2x) � 5 - x is all values of x such that x � 1.4.

Graphical solution methods not only offer instructive visualization of the solution process, but they can be applied to inequalities that are often difficult to solve algebraically. The EL-9600/9400 allows the solution region to be indicated visually using the Shade feature. Also, the points of intersection can be obtained easily.
