Step-by-step explanation:
first step is to define the line, and then, secondly find the right direction of the inequality.
we see a few nice points with integer coordinates.
the one on the y-axis is particularly helpful (0, 1), as it gives up the y- intercept right away (1).
another point is (1, 3).
so, the slope is
x changes by +1 (from 0 to 1)
y changes by +2 (from 1 to 3)
so the slope is 2/1 = 2
that means our equation is
y = 2x + 1
the graph says that the inequality is everything bigger than the line value, and the line is not included (dashed line).
so, we get
y > 2x + 1
