$$2x+1.5y \le15$$
$$x>y$$

anonymous · Answer

plot the equality
$$2x+1.5y=15$$
Should be a straight line,
then find the feasible region for the inequality
$$2x+1.5y<=15$$
by plugging in values of x and y such that the point (x,y) does not lie on the line 2x+1.5y=15
If the inequality is true, the feasible region is towards the point (x,y) , otherwise opposite side
