sniffcherries has a spectacular aura about
pretend that the inequality sign isn't then until the shading needs to be done so y=-x+2
where the y-intercept point is ( 0,2) start graphing at that point with a negative slope of one so the line goes from upper left corner to bottom right corner going down 1 square.
then you test it by using the equation w/ the inequality signs.
use coordinates from both sides of the line that you graphed....
try (0,0) and a point from the other side....
if the coordinates work in the equation so not ( 4is less than or equal to 1 for example)
if it works, shade in that area. and becuz the sign is less than or equal the line you draw for the graph is a solid line instead of dotted.
