Question 931719: Can you please explain what I'm supposed to do here?
Choose a point within the boundaries of the shape, and show algebraically that the point satisfies all of the inequalities.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Take your point and put it in each of the inequalities and verify that the inequality holds.
Example: 2x%2By%3C1 and x%5E2%2By%5E2%3C2 represent a circle cut by a line.
Check points (-1%2F2,1%2F2) (1,1) to see if they are in the solution region.

First (-1%2F2,1%2F2)
2%28-1%2F2%29%2B%281%2F2%29%3C1
-1%2B1%2F2%3C1
-1%2F2%3C1
True
%28-1%2F2%29%5E2%2B%281%2F2%29%5E2%3C2
1%2F4%2B1%2F4%3C2
1%2F2%3C2
True
Both inequalities are satisfied, (-1%2F2,1%2F2) is in the solution region.
.
.
.
Next, (1,1)
2%281%29%2B1%3C1
3%3C1
False.
Since it already failed one of the inequalities, it is not in the solution region.
