Question

Which correctly describes how the graph of the inequality 4x − 2y > 20 is shaded? (1 point)

Above the solid line
Below the solid line
Above the dashed line
Below the dashed line

Mercury · Answer

solve the inequality for y. since we have a > sign, this narrows us down to dashed lines (> implies that the values on the line itself are not included).

now, look at the direction of the inequality sign. if y > (the rest of the inequality), then the shading goes above the line. if y < (the rest of the inequality) the shading goes below the line.
