Question

Can someone help with this problem please? Thanks.

Answer 1

First, find the slope of the line. Use the two points given, (-4,0) and (4,2), in the slope formula rise over run. The change in rise is 2 and the change in run is 8, meaning that the slope is 2/8, simplified to 1/4. The y-intercept is 1, shown by the graph and the dashed line and shaded area means that the inequality symbol must be <. Slope-intercept form is shown as y = mx + b, so after putting our information in to the equation the answer is y < 1/4x + 1. Hope this helps!
