The slope is -1/2
Step by step
1) formula m=y2-y1/x2-x1
2) slope equals = -1+2/-8+6
3) 1/-2
4) answer is -1/2
Scale for y - 1:1
Scale for x - 1:10
Reason- so that i can plot the points on the graph without any modification to the given one.
Now plot the points on the graph using the scale. I cant obviously do that here.
The two inequalities can be rewritten as
The solution is composed by every point below the graph of the line 
, and above the horizontal line 
To draw the line we can build a little table (only 2 points are required):
So, if you draw the points (0,2) and (1, -2) and connect them, you'll have your line.
To draw the line , simply pick any point with y coordinate -2, for example (0, -2), and draw a horizontal line.
Choose the above/below areas as specified above to solve the system.
Your answer would be 33 lb. hope that helped
