We're going to go ahead and eliminate one answer out of the four. It <u>cannot be B</u> (the second answer) <em>because the graph is made of dotted lines. </em>
Dotted Lines = > or <
Solid Lines = ≤ or ≥
Next, let's focus on the straight line on the graph.
The equation for the line is
y = x - 4
Since the shaded region is <em>below </em>the line,
the equation will be <u>y < x - 4 </u>
We can now <u>eliminate </u>answer <u>A </u>
Since the second equation is y < - l x - 2 l
It will be shaded below the graph since it uses the ( < ) (less than symbol)
This means <em><u>the answer is C</u></em>
