------
Find the equation of the border::
slope = (3--1)/(6-0) = 4/6 = 2/3
intercept = f(0) = -1
Equation of border is y = (2/3)x -1
--------------------
Find equation of the shaded area::
Since the y-values of the shaded area are BELOW
the y-values of the line for any particular value
of "x", the shaded area satisfies "y is LESS than
(2/3)x-1
----------------
Combining the border and the shaded area points you get::
Ans: y <= (2/3)x-1
----------------------------
Cheers,

If the shaded part is for the solution of the inequality, you want to finish showing .









Pick any of the two points:

--------but one of the points, the one I picked, IS the vertical axis intercept.
-
The corresponding equation is ; the inequality you want for your description is .
