Answer:

y >= 4/3 x + 4

Explanation:

First, we find the equation of the line.

y = mx + b

The y-intercept is 4, so b = 4,and we have

y = mx + 4

Now we find the slope using 2 points.

slope = m = (0 - 4)/(-3 - 0) = -4/(-3) = 4/3

The equation of the line is

y = 4/3 x + 4

The line is solid, so we will use >= or <=, but not > or <.

The shading is "above" the line, so the correct sign is >=.

Answer: y >= 4/3 x + 4
