Answer:

To graph the inequality y ≤ x - 2 on the axes, you would:

Plot the line y = x - 2 on the graph. The line will be a straight line passing through the point (-2,0) and has a slope of 1.

Determine the direction of the inequality symbol. Since it is a less-than-or-equal-to symbol, we will shade the region that is less than or equal to the line.

Shade the region that is less than or equal to the line in the graph. In this case, the region above the line y = x - 2.

The line is solid, it's not dotted.

Note: The graph will be a straight line that is tilted towards the top right of the coordinate axes, the region above the line will be shaded.
