(i) Consider x – 2y ≤ 3 ………….. (1) 

Draw the graph of x - 2y = 3 by thick line. 

It passes through  

Join these points, put x = 0 and y = 0 in (1), 

we get 0 – 0 < 3, which is true. 

∴Solution of (1) contains the origin. 

Consider 3x + 4y > 12 …………. (2) 

Draw the graph of 3x + 4y = 12 by thick line. 

It passes through (4, 0) and (0, 3). 

Join these points, put x = 0 and y = 0 in (2) 

we get 0 + 0 > 12 which is false. 

∴ Solution set of (2) does not contain the origin. 

Consider y>1   ………….. (3) 

Draw the graph of y = 1 

clearly solution set of (3) does not contain (0, 0). 

Since x > 0, every point in the shaded region in the first quadrant, including the points on the lines, represents the solution of the given system of in equations.

(ii) Consider 4x + 3y ≤ 60 ……….. (1) 

Draw the graph of 4x+3y = 60 by the thick line. 

It passes through (15, 0) and (0, 20) 

Join these points, put x = 0 and y = 0 in (1), 

we get 0 – 0 ≤ 60 ,which is true.

∴ Solution set of (1) contains(0,0) 

Consider y ≥2x ……………. (2) 

Draw the graph of y = 2x by thick line 

It passes through (0, 0) and (1,2) 

Join these points, 

clearly solution set of (2) is not containing (1,1) 

Consider x ≥ 3 ……………. (3) 

Draw the graph of x = 3 

clearly solution set of (3) does not contain the origin. 

Since y > 0, every point in the shaded region in the first quadrant, including the points on the lines, represents the solution of the given system of in equations.

(iii) Consider 3x + 2y ≤ 150 ……………. (1) 

Draw the graph of 3x + 2y = 150 

It passes through (50, 0) and (0, 75) put x = 0 and y = 0 in (1), 

we get 0 +0 < 150, which is true. 

∴ Solution set of (1) contains (0, 0) 

Consider x + 4y < 80 ……………. (2) 

Draw the graph of x + 4y = 80. 

It passes through (80, 0) and (0, 20). 

Join these points, put x = 0 and y = 0 in (2), 

we get 0 + 0 < 80, which is true. 

∴ Solution set of (2) contains (0, 0) 

Consider x < 15 ……………. (3) 

Clearly solution set of (3) does not contain the origin since x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0, every point in the shaded region in the first quadrant, including the points on the lines, represents the solution of the given system of in equations.

(iv) Consider x + 2y ≤10 …………(1) 

Draw the graph of x+2y=10 

It passes through (10, 0) and (0, 5) put x – 0 and y = 0 in (1), 

we get 0 + 0 < 10, which is true. 

∴ Solution set of (1), contain (0, 0) 

Consider x + y > 1  ………… (2) 

Draw the graph of x + y = 1 

It passes through (1,0) and (0, 1) put x = 0 and y = 0 in (2), 

we get 0 + 0 > 1, 

which is false.

∴ Solution set of (2) is not containing the origin 

Consider x – y < 0 …………  (3) 

Draw the graph of x – y = 0. 

It passes through (0, 0) and (1, 1) put x = 2 and y = 0 in (3) 

we get 2 – 0 < 0 which is false 

∴ Solution set of (3) does not contain (2, 0) 

Since x > 0, y > 0, every point in the shaded region in the first quadrant, including the points on the lines, represents the solution of the given system of in equations.
