GCSE Maths Practice: inequalities-on-graphs

Question 5 of 10

This question practices inequalities with a steep positive slope. Understanding how to shade above the line for '>' is key for GCSE Algebra.

‹ ›

\( \text{Which graph correctly shows the inequality } y > 5x - 4? \)

Choose one option:

Use a dashed line for strict inequalities. Shade correctly above the line and check by testing a point not on the line.

For a linear inequality y > mx + c, draw the line y = mx + c as dashed because '>' is strict. Shade above the line. This works for any linear inequality.
