The linear inequations, for which the shaded area in the figure given below is the solution set, are Correct Answer 2x + 6y ≤ 21, 5x – 2y ≤ 10

The given region is below the line 5x – 2y = 10 and below the line 2x + 6y = 21

2y ≥ 5x – 10

⇒ 10 ≤ 5x – 2y

6y ≥ 21 – 2x

⇒ 2x + 6y ≥ 21

⇒ The required region is 2x + 6y ≤ 21, 5x – 2y ≤ 10

This can be checked by taking the origin as the test point

2(0) + 6(0) = 0 ≤ 21

5(0) – 2(0) ≤ 10

∴ The required region is 2x + 6y ≤ 21, 5x – 2y ≤ 10
