Shade above the line if you see "𝑦 > " 𝑜𝑟 "𝑦 ≥ " Always read
Shade below the line if you see "𝑦 < " 𝑜𝑟 "𝑦 ≤ " from " + 𝑦 "

Draw solid line ( ) when you see ≤ 𝑜𝑟 ≥

Draw dashed line (- - - -) when you see < 𝑜𝑟 >

Solid line shows that the shaded region included points on the line.
Dashed line shows that the shaded region NOT included points on the line.
