Question

Find the graphical solution of the following system of linear inequations:
2x + y ≥ 8, x + 2y ≥ 10, x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0

Graph

Solution

Writing the above inequalities as equations
2x + y = 8

x 0 4
y 8 0
(x, y) (0, 8) (4, 0)

x + 2y = 10

x 0 10
y 5 0
(x, y) (0, 5) (10, 0)


The inequality 2x + y ≥ 8 represents the region above the line, including the points on the line 2x + y = 8
The inequality x + 2y ≥ 10 represents the region above the line, including the points on the line x + 2y = 10 
Since x ≥ 0; y ≥ 0, all points in the shaded region represents solution of the given system of inequalities.
