1. Problem Description
We are asked to graph the region determined by the following system of inequalities:
2. Solution Steps
First, we will rewrite the inequalities in slope-intercept form when applicable, or identify them as vertical or horizontal lines.
1. $y \le 3x + 5$ is already in slope-intercept form.
2. $6y + 5x \le 12$ can be rewritten as $6y \le -5x + 12$, which means $y \le -\frac{5}{6}x + 2$.
3. $x \ge -2$ is a vertical line.
4. $y \ge -4$ is a horizontal line.
Now we will graph the inequalities.
1. $y \le 3x + 5$ is the region below the line $y = 3x + 5$. The line has a y-intercept of 5 and a slope of
3.
2. $y \le -\frac{5}{6}x + 2$ is the region below the line $y = -\frac{5}{6}x + 2$. The line has a y-intercept of 2 and a slope of $-\frac{5}{6}$.
3. $x \ge -2$ is the region to the right of the vertical line $x = -2$.
4. $y \ge -4$ is the region above the horizontal line $y = -4$.
The solution to the system of inequalities is the region where all four inequalities are satisfied. It is the intersection of the four regions described above.
The region will be a closed polygon bounded by the lines , , , and .
3. Final Answer
The solution is the region bounded by the inequalities , , , and . This region should be graphed using the provided graphing tool.
