Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can tell right away, that the line has a positive slope, since it goes upwards and to the right. To find the slope exactly, we will use rise/run. We will count the units from the first given point until we reach the next point.
So we can tell that the slope is 3/1 or just 3.
Also, since the line crosses the y-axis at -4, this will be the y-intercept.
Next, since the line is dotted, we know that the inequality sign will either be the "greater than" sign, or the "lesser than" sign. In this case, since the shaded area is below the line, we will use the "lesser than" sign.
So all together, we have y < 3x - 4.
Hope this helps you :)
