Answer:
The graph in the attached figure
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x------> the number of times Emma mows the lawn
y------> the number of hours Emma babysits
we know that
------> inequality that represent the situation
The solution is the shade area above the solid line between the values of x and y positive
The equation of the solid line is equal to
The slope of the line is negative
The y-intercept of the line is the point (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)
The x-intercept of the line is the point (value of x when the value of y is equal to zero)
so
The graph in the attached figure
