Math Problem Statement
Solution
The graph shows a system of inequalities with a shaded region. Let's break down the graph and analyze it step-by-step:
-
The solid line in the graph represents the boundary for one of the inequalities. The line has a slope of 2 and crosses the origin (0, 0), so the equation of the line is: Since the shading is below the line, the inequality associated with this line is:
-
There is a horizontal dashed line at , and the shaded region is below this line, so the second inequality is:
So the system of inequalities is:
The correct answer is the third option: and .

Here are 5 related questions to consider:
- How do you determine the inequality signs from a graph?
- What changes in the system if the lines were dashed instead of solid?
- How would the system change if the shaded region were above the line?
- How do you graph a system of inequalities by hand?
- What happens if two inequality regions overlap?
Tip: Always look at the direction of the shading to decide if the inequality is "greater than" or "less than."
