You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve this system by graphing.
x>2+y
y>1
:
We want the 1st equation in the general (y=) form in order to plot on a graph
x > 2 + y
Subtract 2 from both sides:
x - 2 > y
Or
y < x - 2; means the same thing
:
Plot this: using x values of -2, 0 and +3, find the value for y
At table will look like this:
x | y
--------
-2|-4
0|-2
3|+1
:
The equation y > 1, is easy, it's a horizontal line passing thru y = 1
:
The graph would look like this:
:
Remember that y < x-2 and y > 1, therefore:
The area of feasibility would be above (>) 1 (the horizontal line)
& below (<) the purple line. The triangular area on the right side of the graph
:
