The objective function is .
The constraints are
\Graph :
\Graph the inequalities and shade the required region.
\Note : The shaded region is the set of solution points for the objective function.
\Observe the graph,
\Tabulate the solutions of each of two system of inequalities and obtain the intersection points.
