Start with the 1st inequality


Replace the inequality sign with an equals sign


So in order to plot , we need to plot the equation first


Graph of


Now plug in a test point (0,0) into the inequality


Plug in and


Evaluate and simplify


Since the inequality is true, this means that we shade the entire region that contains the point (0,0). So this means that we shade everything below the line . Note: Since the inequality is a "less than" sign, this means that the line should be a dotted line.


Graph of with the shaded region in green
