Given the word problem, we can deduce the following information:
1. There are two lines of which the other one is a solid line while the other is a dashed line.
To determine which inequality is associated with the graph, we determine the location of the dashed line first. We can notice that it is located at y=-2. Since it is a dashed line or broken line and the shaded portion is below the dashed line, we can say that is less than or <.
Therefore, the answer isitd. y< -2.
