Put both equations of the system into slope-intercept form; easy to graph.

system%282x-y%3C2%2Cx%2B3y%3E3%29

system%28y%3E2x-2%2Cy%3E-x%2F3%2B1%29

This shows in reference to the LINEAR EQUATIONS.
graph%28300%2C300%2C-3%2C3%2C-3%2C3%2C2x-2%2C-x%2F3%2B1%29
The upper left region will be the solutions for the system, NOT including the points on the lines.

Attempting the code for the inequalities:
But this graph is WRONG.
graph%28300%2C300%2C-3%2C3%2C-3%2C3%2Cy%3E2x-2%2Cy%3E-x%2F3%2B1%29

How do you need to combine the equations? By AND or by OR?
If by OR, then the inequality graph shown would be correct. If by AND, then the description I gave would be correct.
