Question

Use the image to answer the question.

A coordinate plane with a dashed line passing through (0, negative 3) and (5, 1). The region below this line is shaded, representing a strict inequality.

Which equation matches the inequality in the given graph?

Option #1: y≥45x−3

Option #2: y>45x−3

Option #3: y≤45x−3

Option #4: y<45x−3

(1 point)
The equation that matches the graph is Option #
.

Answer 1

Option #4.

The line is dashed (strict inequality) with y-intercept -3, and the region below it is shaded, so y < (4/5)x − 3 (given choices, y < 45x − 3).
