Question

On a coordinate plane, a dashed straight line has a positive slope and goes through (negative 3, negative 7) and (0, 2). Everything to the left of the line is shaded. Which linear inequality is represented by the graph?

Answer 1

Answer:

y>3x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. use y2-y1/x2-x1 to find the slope (3)

2. since the y-intercept is already give as (0,2) we have the equation y=3x+2

3. finally since the left side is shaded, that would mean everything greater than that equation can equal y therefore y>3x+2
