Here, we're gonna write a linear inequality whose graph is described by the shaded region.
00:05
And we have two different ones here.
00:07
So the first way i like to start these is by simply finding the equation of the line.
00:14
So if i look at number one here, here's the line, it's right on that edge there, and we're gonna find the equation of that line.
00:21
So i'm gonna start by finding its y -intercept and it's right there at negative two.
00:25
So we're gonna write this equation of the line in y equals mx plus b form, where m is the slope and b is the y -intercept.
00:34
Well, we just said our y -intercept is at negative two.
00:38
So i'm gonna switch that b out and put minus two there.
00:42
And then we need to find the slope.
00:44
So i'm gonna find another slope on the point on the line, and we can see that i go over one and down one.
00:49
So my slope here is negative one because we did have to go negative in one direction.
00:55
So i get negative one x.
00:57
We can actually just write this as negative x minus two.
01:05
It is a solid line, so it does equal that area.
01:10
And if i have this line here, my y values that are shaded are all underneath the line.
01:18
So it's not y equals negative x minus two because that only accounts for this green line that i highlighted here.
01:26
So now we're gonna fix the sign...
