Answer:

(c) y < -x +1

Explanation:

You want the inequality that matches the graph.

Boundary line

The boundary line of the shaded area has a negative slope: it falls one unit for each unit to the right, so the slope is ...

m = rise/run = -1/1 = -1

The line crosses the y-axis at y = 1, so the y-intercept is b = 1.

The equation of the boundary line is ...

y = mx + b

y = -x +1

Shading

The boundary line is dashed, so its values are not part of the solution set. The shading is below the line, so only y-values less than those on the line are included.

The inequality is ...

y < -x +1 . . . . . choice C
