Using Geogebra for Inequalities

To use Geogebra for graphing inequalities, simply change the equal sign to the desired inequality symbol. Geogebra will shade the appropriate region for you. You can experiment with various settings to change the type of shading. You might want to go with shades of gray rather than colors.
