How do you graph x+y>2 on the coordinate plane?

graph{y > -x + 2 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

Explanation:

x + y > 2
y > -x + 2

let x=0 for y-intercept.

y = -(0) + 2
y = 2

let y=0 for x-intercept.

0 = -x + 2
x = 2

Plot these points on the Cartesian plane and connect the two dots with straight line. Since the y value is greater than -x + 2 in the form y = mx + b, the line should be dotted and you should shade the region above the line.
