Solve the following system of inequalities graphically:

x + y ≤ 9, y > x, x ≥ 0


Given x + y ≤ 9,


Putting value of x = 0 and y = 0 in equation one by one, we get value of


y = 9 and x = 9


The required points are (0,9) and (9,0)


Checking if the origin is included in the line`s graph (0,0)


0 9


Which is true , so the required area would be including the origin and hence will lie on the left side of the line`s graph.


y > x,


Solving for y = x


we get x= 0, y = 0 so the origin lies on the line`s graph.


The other points would be (0, 0) and (2, 2)


Checking for (9, 0) in y > x,


we get 0 > 9 which is false, since the area would not include the area below the line`s graph and hence would be on the left side of the line.


x 0


The area of the required line`s graph would be on the right side of the line`s graph.


the shaded are is the required solution of the given inequalities.
