intersection, and that is the solution.
---------------------
Since it's an inequality, it's the area under the line
and also including the line

y is less than or equal to -x-2 .
----------------------------


y%3C=-x-2

y-intercept -2
x-intercept -2


----
To find x-intercept, let y=0 and solve for x.
