First, write the equation of the line.
<u>Let's find the y-intercept.</u>
- => y = mx + b
- => y = mx + 5
Now, let's find the slope.
- My chosen points: (1,2) and (-1,2)
<u>Finding the slope:</u>
Our equation: y = -3x + 5
Now, let's <u>change</u> the sign to <u>"≤"</u> because that will tell us the area of the <u>gray region.</u> If we were using the sign <u>"≥"</u>, that would find the area of the <u>blue region.</u>
Linear inequality = <u>y ≤ -3x + 5</u>
Option B is correct.
