Question

When graphing the inequality y ≤ 2x − 4, the boundary line needs to be graphed first. Which graph correctly shows the boundary line?

Answer 1

See Below

Explanation:

The boundary line follows the graph of y = 2x - 4 because it represents the line of maximum or minimum values the graph could take. y = 2x - 4 has a y-intercept of -4 because it is in slope-intercept form. It also has a slope of 2, so to find another point on the line, you can go up two and right one. Also, this inequality has a solid line because it is "less than or equal to" and a solid line represents the values that equal.
