The question, in short

On a grid with x and y from −1 to 5, identify and label the region R satisfying y ≥ 2x, x + y ≤ 4 and x ≥ 0.

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

Solution · 3 marks

  1. 1Rule y = 2x through (0, 0) and (2, 4)
  2. 2Rule x + y = 4 through (0, 4) and (4, 0)
  3. 3x = 0 is the y-axis
  4. 4R is above y = 2x, below x + y = 4 and right of the y-axis: the triangle with vertices (0, 0), (0, 4) and (4/3, 8/3); label it R
