The solution of linear inequalities and lies:

  1. A
    Only in the first quadrant
  2. B
    In the first and second quadrants
  3. C
    In the second and third quadrants
  4. D
    In the third and fourth quadrants

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Consider the inequalities:: The boundary line is .
image
For , is false, so the region is away from the origin.: The boundary line is . For , is true, so the region includes the origin.The intersection of these regions:The line passes through and .The line passes through and .The intersection point is .The feasible region extends into the first quadrant (where both can be positive) and continues into the second quadrant (as decreases and increases, satisfying and ).Therefore, the solution lies in the first and second quadrants.
