Solution

(i) We have,

2x+y8,x+2y8,x+y6

Converting the given inequation into equations,we obtain,

2x+y=8,x+2y=8,and x+y=6

Region represented by 2x+y8

Putting x=0 in2x+y=8,we get y=8

Putting y=0 in 2x+y=8,we get x=82=4

The line 2x+y=8 meets the coordinates axes at (0,8) and (4,0).Join these points by a thick line.

Now ,putting x=0 and y=0 in 2x+y8,we get 08

This is not possible.

We find that (0,0) is not satisifes the inequation 2x+y8

So,the portion not containing the origin is represented by the given inequation

Region represented by x+2y8

Putting x=0 in x+2y=8,we get y=82=4

Putting y=0 in x+2y=8,we get x=8

The line x+2y=8 meets the coordinates axes at (0,4) and (8,0).Joining these points by a thick line.

Now ,putting x=0 and y=0 in x+2y8,we get 08

This is not possible.

We find that (0,0) is not satisifes the inequation x+2y8

So,the portion not containing the origin is represented by the given inequation.

Region represented by x+y6

Putting x=0 in x+y=6,we get y=6

Putting y=0 in x+y=6,we get x=6

The line x+y=6 meets the coordinates axes at (0,6) and (6,0).

Joining these points by a thick line.

Now ,putting x=0 and y=0 in x+y6,we get 06

Therefore,(0,0) satisfies x+y6,so the portion containing the origin is represented by the given inequation.The common region of the above three regions represents the solution set of the given inequations as shown below:

(ii) We have,

12x+12y840,3x+6y300,8x+4y480 x0,y0

12x+12y= 840, 3x+6y= 300,8x+4y=480, x = 0 and y=0

Region represented by 12x+12y840

Putting x=0 in 12x+12y= 840,we get y=84012=70

Putting y=0 in by 12x+12y840,we get x=84012=70

The line 12x+12y= 840meets the coordinates axes at (0,70) and (70,0).Join these points by a thick line.,

Now ,putting x=0 and y=0 in 12x+12y840,we get 0840

Therefore,(0,0) satisfies the inequality 12x+12y840,

So,the portion not containing the origin is represented by the given inequation 12x+12y840

Region represented by 3x+6y300

Putting x=0 in 3x+6y300,we get y=3006=50

Putting y=0 in x=3003=100

The line 3x+6y= 300meets the coordinates axes at (0,50) and (100,0).Joining these points by a thick line.

Now ,putting x=0 and y=0 in 3x+6y300,we get 0300

Therefore ,(0,0) satisfies the inequality 8x+4y480

Putting x=0 in 8x+4y=480,we get, y=4804=120

Putting y=0 in 8x+4y=480,we get, x=4808=60

The line 8x+4y=480 meets the coordinates axes at (0,120) and (60,0).Join these points by a thick line.

Now ,putting x=0 and y=0 in 8x+4y=480,we get 0480

Therefore,(0,0) satisfies the inequality 8x+4y=480

So, the portion containing the origin is represented the solution set of the inequation 8x+4y=480

Putting y=0 in by x+2y=40,we get x=40

The line x+2y=40,meets the coordinates axes at (0,20) and (40,0).Join these points by a thick line.

Now ,putting x=0 and y=0 in x+2y40,we get 040

therefore,(0,0) satisfies the inequality x+2y40,

So,the portion not containing the origin is represented by the given inequation x+2y40
