1. Problem Description

The problem asks to find the inequality whose solution is represented by the shaded region in the given graph. The graph shows a shaded region bounded by a dashed line.

2. Solution Steps

The line in the graph intercepts the x-axis at x=3x=3 and the y-axis at y=3y=3. The equation of this line is given by
x3+y3=1\frac{x}{3} + \frac{y}{3} = 1
x+y=3x + y = 3
Since the line is dashed, the inequality will either be >> or <<. The shaded region is below the line.
Let us test a point in the shaded region, for example, (0,0)(0,0).
If x+y<3x + y < 3, then 0+0<30 + 0 < 3, which is true.
If x+y>3x + y > 3, then 0+0>30 + 0 > 3, which is false.
So, the inequality is x+y<3x+y < 3.

3. Final Answer

B. x+y<3x + y < 3
