Question 183990This question is from textbook mcdougal littell algebra 1
: A monthly magazine is hiring reporters to cover school events and local events. In each magazine, the managing editor wants at least 4 reporters covering local news and at least 1 reporter covering school news. The budget allows not more than 9 different reporters' articles to be in one magazine. Graph the region that shows the possible combinations of local and school events.
I'd understand if you could not display the graph, but what I really need are the coordinates.

A monthly magazine is hiring reporters to cover school events and local events. In each magazine, the managing editor wants at least 4 reporters covering local news and at least 1 reporter covering school news.
---------------------------
L >= 4
S >= 1
--------------------------
The budget allows not more than 9 different reporters' articles to be in one magazine.
L + S <=9
-------------------------------------
Graph the region that shows the possible combinations of local and school events.
---
Let the horizontal axis be S(school events); Let the vertical axis
be L(local events)
-------------------
Draw a vertical line at S = 1 ;Draw a horizontal line at L = 4
Sketch the line S + L = 9 ; shade the area below the line that is to
the right of S=1 and above L=4.
--------------------
The vertices of interest are (1,4), (1,8), and (5,4)
