Question: Write the following inequality in slope intercept form. $x - y \geq -2$
1. **State the problem:** We need to write the inequality $x - y \geq -2$ in slope-intercept form.
2. **Recall the slope-intercept form:** The slope-intercept form of a linear equation or inequality is $$y = mx + b$$ where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.
3. **Rewrite the inequality:** Starting with
$$x - y \geq -2$$
we want to isolate $y$ on one side.
4. **Subtract $x$ from both sides:**
$$x - y - x \geq -2 - x$$
which simplifies to
$$-y \geq -2 - x$$
5. **Multiply both sides by $-1$ to solve for $y$:**
Remember, multiplying an inequality by a negative number reverses the inequality sign.
$$\cancel{-1} \times -y \leq \cancel{-1} \times (-2 - x)$$
which gives
$$y \leq 2 + x$$
6. **Rewrite in slope-intercept form:**
$$y \leq x + 2$$
**Final answer:** The inequality in slope-intercept form is $$y \leq x + 2$$.
