Graphical Method of Solving Systems of Linear Inequalities in Two Variables

Example 2

Graph the solution set of the system of linear inequalities below.

{ yx+1 y1


Solution

You can graph each inequality of the system on the same set of axes.

The graph of yx+1 is the region on or below the boundary line y=x+1.

The graph of y1 is the region on or above the boundary line y=1.

Hence, the solution set is the shaded region shown in the following figure:
