The graph shown above is part of a question that is confusing me a lot.
The y-intercept is 2 and the x intercept is 1.
The question is:
Write an equation in two variables that represents the graph.

Can anyone help me? I don't understand inequalities in graphs.
 
Find the slope of the line, remember y=mx+b, where m is the slope, and b is the y intercept. Hope this helps.
 
That really did help, I knew the formula y=mx+b but I was putting numbers in the wrong places. So using the formula I got that y=-2x+2, but as far as the inequality goes, is it y<-2x+2?
