Explanation:
First try the origin (0,0) to rule out two of the graphs.
3y ≥ x - 9
3(0) ≥ (0) - 9
3 ≥ - 9 yes
3x + y > - 3
3(0) + (0) > - 3
3 > - 3 yes
so the origin should be in the shaded area of the graph, which rules out the top right and bottom left graphs.
Now try a coordinate that is in the shaded area of one of the remaining graphs, but not in the other one. If it works, the graph is the one that has that point in the shaded region, and vice versa.
Try point (4, 2)
3y ≥ x - 9
3(2) ≥ (4) - 9
6 ≥ - 5 yes
3x + y > - 3
3(4) + (2) > - 3
12 + 2 > - 3
14 > - 3 yes
So the graph is the bottom right one since (4, 2) is included in that shaded region.

See explanation
EXPLANATION
The table contains these two points (-4,-3) and (2,-4.5)
The slope of this line is given by;
The y-intercept can be obtained by finding the equation of the line in the form:
We plug in the slope and the point (-4,-3) to find c.
This implies that,
Hence the y-intercept is -4.
The given line is
This is already in the slope intercept form:
The slope is
The y-intercept is c=1
