Answer :

Answer:

[tex]y>3x+2[/tex] is represented in the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the linear inequality for the shown graph.

Steps:

Finding the equation of dotted line shown in the graph.

Equation of line is given by

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where [tex]m[/tex] is slope of line and [tex]b[/tex] is y-intercept.

Given points: [tex](0,2) \ and\ (-3,-7)[/tex]

Slope of the line [tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{-7-2}{-3-0}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{-9}{-3}[/tex]

∴ [tex]m=3[/tex]

From the given points we can see that point of y-intercept is given i.e. the point where the line intersects the y-axis  [tex](0,2)[/tex]

∴ [tex]b=2[/tex]

So equation of line:

[tex]y=3x+2[/tex]

Since the shaded area in the graph is above the line and the line is dotted this means that [tex]y[/tex] is greater than the equation of line.

So, the inequality can be given as:

[tex]y>3x+2[/tex]

Answer:

B.) y > 3x + 2
