U have a solid line...meaning there is an equal sign in the problem u have a y int of -1 (the y int is where ur line crosses the y axis) u have a slope of : 1 it is shaded below the line...so it is less then
First, let's work out the equation of the graph. We can see that for every 1 in x, the y coordinate increases by 1, which means the gradient is 1. The line intercepts the y axis at -1, meaning the equation of our line is y = x - 1 An inequality in this case basically represents which side of the line we want to be on - do we want the numbers to be greater than the line (i.e. above the y value) or less (i.e. below the y value)? The shading here shows us they want the value set below the line, i.e. less than it.
