Firstly determine the equation of the line using slope and intercept form
picking points (0,1) and (2,5)
slope m = (5-1)/(2-0) = 4/2 =2
y-intercept, c = 1
using y = mx + c
y = 2x + 1 _______equation of the line
test the region above the line with a point within the region lets say point (1,6)
x = 1, y = 6
we have
6 > 2(1) + 1
6> 3
Since this is a true statement, and remember that the line is a continous line, the shaded region above the line represent
