Write an inequality for the graph below
andrezito [222]

Answer:

y > -1/4x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the equation of the line itself, which is y = -1/4x + 4, then determine if graph shades above the line or below the line. If it shades above which is true in this case, it will be greater than. If it shades below which does not occur in this case, it will be less than. Because the line is dashed and not solid, it will just be greater than or less than.

Therefore y = -1/4x + 4 → y > -1/4x + 4 [Shades above the line, line is dashed].
