Multiple Choice

A manufacturing technician is using a coordinate plane to map the acceptable tolerances for two different machine parts. The safety zones are defined by the following system of linear inequalities:

{y≤−14x+2x+4y≤4\left\{\begin{array}{l} y \leq -\frac{1}{4}x + 2 x + 4y \leq 4 \end{array}\right.

After converting the second inequality into slope-intercept form (y≤−14x+1y \leq -\frac{1}{4}x + 1), which of the following best describes the geometric relationship between the two boundary lines?
