Answer 1

To determine which linear inequality matches the given graph, you would typically look for the following features in the graph:

1. **Line Type**: If the boundary line is solid, the inequality includes "equal to" (≥ or ≤). If the boundary line is dashed, the inequality does not include "equal to" (> or <).

2. **Shading**: If the area typically above the line is shaded, it indicates a greater than inequality (> or ≥). If the area below the line is shaded, it indicates a less than inequality (< or ≤).

Assuming you have these elements in the graph:

- If the line is dashed and the shaded area is below the line, the corresponding inequality would be **y < 2x + 2**.
- If the line is dashed and the shaded area is above the line, it would be **y > 2x + 2**.
- If the line is solid and the shaded area is below the line, it would be **y ≤ 2x + 2**.
- If the line is solid and the shaded area is above the line, it would be **y ≥ 2x + 2**.

Without seeing the graph, I cannot specify which one of these inequalities matches, but you can use the points above to deduce the correct inequality based on those characteristics.
