Answer:
The inequality shown in the graphic is [tex]y > 4x + 1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a line:
The equation of a line is given by:
[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]
In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept(value of y when x = 0).
Inequality:
Values greater than the dashed line, dashed so the line is not part of the inequality, thus, the inequality is:
[tex]y > mx + b[/tex]
Dashed line:
The dashed line goes through (0,1) and (1,5).
Point (0,1) means that when [tex]x = 0, y = 1[/tex], so [tex]b = 1[/tex], and:
[tex]y > mx + 1[/tex]
Finding the slope:
When we have two points, the slope is given by the change in y divided by the change in x. In this question, we have point (0,1) and (1,5), so:
Change in y: 5 - 1 = 4
Change in x: 1 - 0 = 1
Slope: [tex]m = \frac{4}{1} = 4[/tex]
What inequality is shown in the graph?
[tex]y > 4x + 1[/tex]
