To determine which equation matches the inequality in the given graph, we need to consider the characteristics of the graph's line and the shading:

  1. If the line is solid, it indicates that the inequality is either "greater than or equal to" (≥) or "less than or equal to" (≤).
  2. If the line is dashed, it indicates the inequality is either "greater than" (>) or "less than" (<).
  3. If the area above the line is shaded, it suggests that the inequality is greater than (>) or greater than or equal to (≥).
  4. If the area below the line is shaded, it suggests that the inequality is less than (<) or less than or equal to (≤).

Based on these characteristics, you should choose the appropriate equation that matches the graph's line type and shading.

Without seeing the graph itself, it is impossible to give a definitive answer. However, you can determine which of the four options is correct by using the steps above.
