Answer:

The inequality that graphed is y ≥ 2x + 2 B

Explanation:

The form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where

  • m is the slope of the line
  • b is the y-intercept

In the given figure

∵ The equation of the line is y = m x + b

∵ The line intersects the y-axis at the point (0, 2)

b = 2

→ Use the rule of the slope m =
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) to find m

∵ The line passes through points (-1, 0) and (0, 2)

x1 = -1 and y1 = 0

x2 = 0 and y2 = 2

→ Substitute them in the rule above

m =
(2-0)/(0--1) =
(2)/(0+1) = 2

→ Substitute the values of m and b in the equation above

∴ The equation of the line is y = 2x + 2

∵ The line is solid

∵ The shaded area is over the line

∴ The sign of inequality is

∴ The inequality is y ≥ 2x + 2

The inequality that graphed is y ≥ 2x + 2
