A solid line is drawn through the intercepts, which are located at
2, 0
and
0, 2 . Since the
inequality is of the form
y
≥ + , we shade above the line.

We now write the second inequality,
y
≥ − − , as an equation,
x

y
= − − . The line will be
x

graphed as a solid line because the inequality is ≥ , which includes the line. We will graph the
line using x- and y-intercepts.

A solid line is drawn through the intercepts, which are located at
2, 0
and
0, 2
. Since the
inequality is of the form
y
≥ − − , we shade above the line, shown in the colors aqua and green
x

below. (The green region is where the aqua shading overlaps with the previous yellow shading.)
The solution set of the system is the intersection of the two shaded half-planes, shown in green
below, along with any points on the boundary of the shaded region.
