Inequality (x ≥ 0) represents the region on the right of y-axis and y-axis itself. Inequality y ≥ 0 represents the region above x-axis and x-axis itself.

2x + y ≤ 24, ....(1) 

x + y ≥ 11,... (2) 

2x + 5y ≤ 40,... (3)

We first draw the graph of lines

2x + y ≤ 24, x + y ≥ 11 and 2x + 5y ≤ 40

Now, 

2x + y ≤ 24, passes through A(12,0) and B(0,24)

Again,

x + y ≥ 11, passes through C(11,0) and D(0,11)

Further 2x + 5y ≤ 40, passes through E(20,0) and F(0,8)
