aThe lines intersect at just above left-parenthesis negative 2.5 comma 1 right-parenthesis. The first line goes through the points left-parenthesis negative 4 comma 0 right-parenthesis and left-parenthesis 0 comma 4 right-parenthesis. The second line goes through the points left-parenthesis negative 4 comma 4 right-parenthesis and left-parenthesis 0 comma negative 4 right-parenthesis. The graph is shaded below the first line and to the left of the second line.
