Question
solve the system of two linear inequalities graphically.\
$$\begin{cases}y \\leq -5x + 10\\\\y > x - 2\\end{cases}$$
\
step 2 of 3: graph the solution set of the second linear inequality.
Step1: Identify boundary line
The boundary of $y > x - 2$ is the line $y = x - 2$. Since the inequality uses $>$, the line is dashed.
Step2: Find intercepts for plotting
- x-intercept: Set $y=0$, solve $0 = x - 2$ → $x=2$. So point $(2, 0)$.
- y-intercept: Set $x=0$, solve $y = 0 - 2$ → $y=-2$. So point $(0, -2)$.
Step3: Test a point to shade region
Use test point $(0,0)$: $0 > 0 - 2$ → $0 > -2$, which is true. Shade the region above the dashed line.

- Draw a dashed line through the points $(2, 0)$ and $(0, -2)$ (this is $y = x - 2$).
- Shade the entire region that lies above this dashed line. This shaded area represents the solution set of $y > x - 2$.
