The question, in short

From a grid diagram, write down three inequalities whose intersection is the shaded triangular region, one boundary line being x + 2y = 8.

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

Solution · 3 marks

  1. 1Identify the vertical line at x = −1 and note the shaded region is to the right, so x ≥ −1
  2. 2Identify the diagonal line y = x and note the shaded region is above it, so y ≥ x
  3. 3The given line is x + 2y = 8 and the shaded region is below it, so x + 2y ≤ 8

Answerx ≥ −1, y ≥ x, x + 2y ≤ 8
