Answer:

B.

Explanation:

First we must find the x and y intercepts for y = -2x - 4. The y-intercept is -4, since it is b in y = mx + b, but you can also find it by plugging in zero for x:


y = -2(0) - 4 = 0 -4=-4

The x-intercept is found by plugging in zero for y:


0=-2x-4


0+4=-2x-4+4


4=-2x


(4)/(-2)=(-2x)/(-2)


-2=x

The graph with an x-intercept of -2 and a y-intercept of -4 is C. Also, less than inequalities have the shading underneath the line, so we definitely know C is the answer.
