Use the image to answer the question.
A coordinate plane shows four points connected to form a line. The x-axis and y-axis both range from negative 5 to 5 in one unit increments. The graphed line passes through points at coordinates left parenthesis negative 1.5 comma negative 2.5 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 0 comma negative 2 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 1.5 comma negative 1.5 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 4.5 comma negative 0.5 right parenthesis. The area below the solid line is shaded.
Determine the solution set of the given graph of an inequality in two variables.
The inequality represented by the graph is y < -x - 0.5.
Therefore, the solution set for the given graph is all the points below the solid line on the coordinate plane, not including the line itself.
