(a)

Graph the constraints for this problem. Use dots to indicate all feasible integer solutions.

On the coordinate plane the horizontal axis is labeled x and the vertical axis is labeled x. A region bounded by a series of connected line segments and several points are on the graph.

  • The line segments connect the approximate points (0, 3), (3.53, 2.41), (6, 1), and (6.5, 0).
  • The region is above the horizontal axis, to the right of the vertical axis, and below the line segments.
  • All ordered pairs with integer values in the region and on its boundaries are shown.
