EOC Exam Prep: Systems of Equations
To graph the solution set of the system of inequalities \(x - 2y \leq 10\) and \(2x + y > 0\), first graph each inequality separately. For \(x - 2y \leq 10\), convert it to the slope-intercept form \(y \geq \frac{1}{2}x - 5\). Shade the area above the line, as it includes the points that satisfy this inequality. For \(2x + y > 0\), convert to \(y > -2x\) and shade the area above this line. The solution set is the region where the shaded areas for both inequalities intersect. Therefore, the graphical solution is the area common to both shaded regions .
