Answer: I think it’s y = mx+b?
Step-by-step explanation: well if you really need it-
Where:
m is the slope, and
b is the y-intercept
First, let's find what m is, the slope of the line...
The slope of a line is a measure of how fast the line "goes up" or "goes down". A large slope means the line goes up or down really fast (a very steep line). Small slopes means the line isn't very steep. A slope of zero means the line has no steepness at all; it is perfectly horizontal.

Answer:
see below. The solution is the doubly-shaded area.
Step-by-step explanation:
Each boundary line will be dashed, because the "or equal to" case is <em>not included</em>. Each shaded area will be above the corresponding boundary line because the comparison symbol is y > .... That is, only y-values greater than (above) those in the boundary line are part of the solution.
Of course, the boundary lines are graphed in the usual way. Each crosses the y-axis at the value of the constant in its equation. Each has a slope (rise/run) that is the value of the x-coefficient in the equation.
