The question, in short

On a grid showing y = 2x + 1, shade out unwanted areas and label region R satisfying y ≥ 2x + 1, y ≥ 1 and 4x + 3y < 12.

Summarised in our own words. Use the official paper for the exact wording and the diagram.

Solution · 4 marks

  1. 1Draw y = 1 as a solid horizontal line
  2. 2Draw 4x + 3y = 12 as a broken line through (0, 4) and (3, 0)
  3. 3Shade below y = 1, below/right of y = 2x + 1, and above/right of 4x + 3y = 12
  4. 4Label the unshaded region (above y = 1, above y = 2x + 1, below 4x + 3y = 12) R

AnswerCorrect region R indicated: the triangle above y = 1 (solid line), to the left of y = 2x + 1 and below 4x + 3y = 12 (dashed line)
