Question

PLEASE HELP! I will award brainliest to the most helpful answer. I need an in depth explanation, not just the answer. How do you know which side to shade/ where to shade? Thank you so much!

Answer 1

Answer:

y ≤ -4x+25

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to figure out the equation for the line

The y intercept is  25

Next figure out the slope

slope = (y2-y1)/((x2-x1)

      = (49-25)/(-6-0)

      = 24/-6

    = -4

The equation for a line in slope intercept form is y = mx+b

y = -4x+25

This is a solid line so our inequality will have an equals in it.

It is shaded below, so y is less than.

If it was shaded above, y would be greater than

y ≤ -4x+25
