Find the x- and y-intercepts.
X-intercept: value of x when y=0
Substitute an equal sign for the less than symbol.
y=2x1
Substitute 0 for y
0=2x1
Add 1 to both sides.
1=2x
Divide both sides by 2.
12=x
The x-intercept is (12, 0).
Y-intercept: value of y when x=0
Substitute 0 for x.
y=2(0)1
y=1
The y-intercept is (0, 1)

Plot the points. Draw a dashed line through the points. This indicates that the line is not a part of the inequality. Since y<2x-1 , shade in the area below the line.
graph {y<2x-1 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
