Answer:

Option (4)

Explanation:

From the graph attached,

A dotted line passes through two points (3, 1) and (-3, -3)

Let the equation of the given line is,

y = mx + b

where 'm' = slope of the line

b = y-intercept

Slope of a line passing through
(x_1, y_1) and
(x_2,y_2) is,

m =
(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

For the given points,

m =
(1+3)/(3+3)

m =
(2)/(3)

y-intercept 'b' = -1

Therefore, equation of the given line will be,


y=(2)/(3)x-1

Since graphed line is a dotted line so it's representing an inequality(having < or > sign)

And the shaded part is below the dotted line,

Inequality will be,

y <
(2)/(3)x-1

Therefore, Option (4) will be the answer.
