Here are the inequalities that describe the shaded regions:

  1. Identify the horizontal dashed line.

    The horizontal dashed line is at y=2y=2. The shaded region is above this line. Since the line is dashed, the inequality is strict.

    y>2y > 2
  2. Identify the solid line on the left.

    This line passes through the points (−6,0)(-6, 0) and (0,2)(0, 2).
    The slope m=2−00−(−6)=26=13m = \frac{2 - 0}{0 - (-6)} = \frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{3}.
    The y-intercept is b=2b=2.
    The equation of the line is y=13x+2y = \frac{1}{3}x + 2.
    The shaded region is below this line. Since the line is solid, the inequality includes equality.

    y≤13x+2y \le \frac{1}{3}x + 2
  3. Identify the solid line on the right.

    This line passes through the points (0,0)(0, 0) and (2,2)(2, 2) (based on the grid scale).
    The slope m=2−02−0=1m = \frac{2 - 0}{2 - 0} = 1.
    The y-intercept is b=0b=0.
    The equation of the line is y=xy = x.
    The shaded region is below this line. Since the line is solid, the inequality includes equality.

    y≤xy \le x
  4. Identify the vertical line (y-axis).

    The y-axis is the line x=0x=0. The shaded region is to the left of this line. Since it's a solid line, the inequality includes equality.

    x≤0x \le 0

    The inequalities describing the shaded regions are:

    y>2\boxed{y > 2} y≤13x+2\boxed{y \le \frac{1}{3}x + 2} y≤x\boxed{y \le x} x≤0\boxed{x \le 0}
