Answer:


y<-(1)/(2)x\\ y\geq -1

Explanation:

We observe in the graph that one line is horizontal, and its solution is the area above. Such line intercepts y-axis at
y=-1, and the solutions are all numbers more than -1, that means its inequality is


y\geq -1

The sign
\geq is the right one for this line, because the graph shows a solid line, which means that -1 is part of the solution.

If you observe all the options, you would see that the third choice is the only one that has
y\geq -1 included.

Therefore, the answer is


y<-(1)/(2)x\\ y\geq -1
