Solution:

Here, we shall apply the concept of a common solution area to find the signs of inequality by using their given equations and the given common solution area (shaded part).

We know that,

If a line is in the form ax + by = c and c is a positive constant. (In case of negative c, the rule becomes opposite), so there are two cases which are,

If a line is above the origin:

(i) If the shaded area is below the line, then ax + by < c

(ii) If the shaded area is above the line, then ax + by > c

If a line is below the origin, then the rule becomes the opposite.

So, according to the rules
