Make it a solid line for y≤ or y≥, and a dashed line for y< or y>
Shade above the line for a "greater than" (y> or y≥) 
or below the line for a "less than" (y< or y≤).

So, the answer is A) x + 4y ≥ −4 

x + 4y ≥ −4 
4y ≥ -x - 4
y ≥ -x/4 - 1

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

The given graph is a solid line passing through two points ( -4, 0) and ( 0, -1 )

Let the equation of this line is y = mx+c

Where m = slope of the line = [tex]\frac{y-y'}{x-x'}[/tex]

              = [tex]\frac{0+1}{-4-0}[/tex] = -[tex](\frac{1}{4})[/tex]

and y-intercept c = (-1)

therefore, equation will be y = ([tex](\frac{-1}{4})[/tex])x + (-1)

                                            y = [tex](\frac{-x}{4}-1[/tex]

                                           4y = -x -4

                                           x + 4y = -4

Since shaded region is above the line therefore inequality will be (x+4y ≥ -4)

Option A is the answer.
