Answer: OPTION C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

Notice that the line of f(x) is dashed. This means that the symbol of the inequality must be [tex]<[/tex] or [tex]>[/tex].

Since the shaded region A is above the line, the symbol is [tex]>[/tex]

Observe that its y-intercept is:

[tex]b=3[/tex]

The line of g(x) is solid. This means that the symbol of the inequality must be [tex]\leq[/tex] or [tex]\geq[/tex].

Since the shaded region B is below the line, the symbol is[tex]\leq[/tex] .

Observe that its y-intercept is:

[tex]b=-2[/tex].

Based on this, we can conclude that the graph represents the following System of Inequalities:

[tex]\left \{ {{y\leq 2x -2} \atop {y >-x + 3}} \right.[/tex]
