Graph y>-2x-5 y<x+4

$y > - 2 x - 5$ $y < x + 4$

Graph $y > - 2 x - 5$ .

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Find the values of $m$ and $b$ using the form $y = m x + b$ .

$m = - 2$

$b = - 5$

The slope of the line is the value of $m$ , and the y-intercept is the value of $b$ .

Slope: $- 2$

y-intercept: $(0, - 5)$

Slope: $- 2$

y-intercept: $(0, - 5)$

Graph a dashed line, then shade the area above the boundary line since $y$ is greater than $- 2 x - 5$ .

$y > - 2 x - 5$

Graph $y < x + 4$ .

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Find the values of $m$ and $b$ using the form $y = m x + b$ .

$m = 1$

$b = 4$

The slope of the line is the value of $m$ , and the y-intercept is the value of $b$ .

Slope: $1$

y-intercept: $(0, 4)$

Slope: $1$

y-intercept: $(0, 4)$

Graph a dashed line, then shade the area below the boundary line since $y$ is less than $x + 4$ .

$y < x + 4$

Plot each graph on the same coordinate system.

$y > - 2 x - 5$

$y < x + 4$
