Graph of linear inequalities in two variables: We shall consider simultaneous inequalities.

Examples:

Show on a graph the region that contains the solution of the simultaneous inequalities

\(2x + 3y < 6,\) \(y -2x ≤ 2, y ≥ 0\)

Solution: In each case put \(y\) on one side of the inequality \(y < \frac{6 -2x}{3},\) \(y ≤ 2 + 2x\) and \(y ≥ 0\)

We shall draw the lines \(y =\frac{6 -2x}{3},\) \(y = 2 + 2x\) and \(y = 0\)

\(x\) -2 0 2 3
\(y_1 = \frac{6 -2x}{3}\) 3.3 22 0.7 0
\(y_2 = 2 + 2x\) -2 2 6 8

 

Points \(p_1(0, 0), p_2(1, 1)\) are in the solution set for the three inequalities.
