Start with the given system of equations:


In order to graph these equations, we need to solve for y for each equation.
So let's solve for y on the first equation
Start with the given equation
Subtract from both sides
Rearrange the equation
Divide both sides by 
Break up the fraction
Reduce
Now lets graph (note: if you need help with graphing, check out this solver)
Graph of 
So let's solve for y on the second equation
Start with the given equation
Add to both sides
Rearrange the equation
Divide both sides by 
Break up the fraction
Reduce
Now lets add the graph of to our first plot to get:
Graph of (red) and (green)
From the graph, we can see that the two lines intersect at the point ( , ) (note: you might have to adjust the window to see the intersection) |

Start with the given system of inequalities
In order to graph this system of inequalities, we need to graph each inequality one at a time.
So lets graph the first inequality
In order to graph we need to graph the equation (just replace the inequality sign with an equal sign). So lets graph the line (note: if you need help with graphing, check out this solver)
graph of
Now lets pick a test point, say (0,0) (any point will work, but this point is the easiest to work with), and evaluate the inequality
Plug in x=0, y=0
Simplify
Since this inequality is true, we shade the entire region containing (0,0)
Here is the graph of with the graph of the line( ) in red and the shaded region in green
(note: In this case, the red line is a solid line. This means the boundaries are included in the region.)
Now lets graph the second inequality
In order to graph we need to graph the equation (just replace the inequality sign with an equal sign). So lets graph the line (note: if you need help with graphing, check out this solver)
graph of
Now lets pick a test point, say (0,0) (any point will work, but this point is the easiest to work with), and evaluate the inequality
Plug in x=0, y=0
Simplify
Since this inequality is true, we shade the entire region containing (0,0)
Here is the graph of with the graph of the line( ) in red and the shaded region in green
(note: In this case, the red line is a solid line. This means the boundaries are included in the region.)
Now lets graph the third inequality
In order to graph we need to graph the equation (just replace the inequality sign with an equal sign). So lets graph the line (note: if you need help with graphing, check out this solver)
graph of (it is the same line as the axis)
Now lets pick a test point, say (1,0) (any point will work, but this point is the easiest to work with), and evaluate the inequality
Plug in x=1
Simplify
Since this inequality is true, we shade the entire region that contain (1,0)
Here is the graph of with the graph of the line( ) in red and the shaded region in green
(note: In this case, the red line is a solid line. This means the boundaries are included in the region.)
Now lets graph the fourth inequality
In order to graph we need to graph the equation (just replace the inequality sign with an equal sign). So lets graph the line (note: if you need help with graphing, check out this solver)
graph of ((it is the same line as the axis)
Now lets pick a test point, say (0,1) (any point will work, but this point is the easiest to work with), and evaluate the inequality
Plug in y=1
Simplify
Since this inequality is true, we shade the entire region that contain (0,1)
Here is the graph of with the graph of the line( ) in red and the shaded region in green
(note: In this case, the red line is a solid line. This means the boundaries are included in the region.)
So we essentially have these 4 regions
Region #1 which is the graph of
Region #2 which is the graph of
Region #3 which is the graph of
Region #4 which is the graph of
So these regions overlap to produce this region. It's a little hard to see, but after evenly shading each region, the intersecting region will be the most shaded in.
Here is a cleaner look at the intersection of regions

So we essentially have these 2 regions
Region #1 which is the graph of
Region #2 which is the graph of
So these regions overlap to produce this region. It's a little hard to see, but after evenly shading each region, the intersecting region will be the most shaded in.
