do you know how to graph lines ?

anonymous · Answer

Yes but how do u know where to start. I need help understanding ; not the answer

anonymous · Answer

you need to graph each inequality, consider them as lines:$$x - 2y = -8$$$$7x + y = -6$$graph those lines and then determine the region by analyzing the inequality signs
