Answer:

The answer would be y > 2/-1x - 5. This is in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b. The letter m would be the slope meaning the rise/run. The letter b would be the y-intercept, meaning where the line crosses the y-intercept. As we can see, the line crosses the y-intercept at -5, so that would replace b. From -5, we would go up positive 2 spaces and left 1 space since that is where the next point is on the line, so it would be the slope. Lastly, since it is a solid line, we would use a partial equal sign. And since the shaded area is above the line, we know to use a greater than or equal to sign. Hope this helped!
