| Question 1010660:  2x-y (less than or equal to) 4
 x+2y (greater than or equal to) 6
 I need to solve both these inequalities to find the correct solution set out of two possible sets. Thanks.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!  includes the line with equation  and half of the x-y plane to one side of that line. To graph that lien we only need to points.
 
  -->  -->  , so point (0,-4) belongs to the line with equation
  . 
  -->  -->  , so point (2,0) belongs to the line with equation
  . With those two points we can graph line
  as 
  . Since point (0,0) , the origin, satisfies
  , because
  , the half of the x-y plane that is the graph of
  is 
  , the half of the x-y plane that contains the origin. We can do the same for
  : 
  -->  -->  , so point (0,3) belongs to the line with equation
  . 
  -->  - , so point (6,0) belongs to the line with equation
  . With those two points we can graph line
  as 
  . Since point (0,0) , the origin, does not satisfy
  , because
  , the half of the x-y plane that is the graph of
  is 
  , the half of the x-y plane that does not contain the origin. So the solution to
  is graphed as the shaded area below.
