y > -4/5x
---
You NEVER graph an inequality directly; you graph the
boundary of the inequality, which is ALWAYS an equality.
=====
Graph y = (-4/5)x as a dashed line because it is not
part of the graph of the inequality.
If x = 0, y = 0
If x = 5, y = -4
---
Plot the points (0,0) and (5,-4) and draw the dashed line thru them.
---
Shade the half-plane ABOVE the boundary because you want y to be
GREATER than the boundary line.
