ECZ 2020 · GCE Paper 1 — Linear Programming

In the diagram below, point A is (1, 1), B is (0, 7), C is (14, 0), D is (7, 0) and E is (7, 1). Write down the four inequalities that define the unshaded region R.

  • A. y ≥ 1; x > 7; y < x; x + 2y ≤ 14
  • B. y ≥ 1; x < 7; y < x; x + 2y ≤ 14
  • C. y ≤ 1; x < 7; y < x; x + 2y ≤ 14
  • D. y ≥ 1; x < 7; y > x; x + 2y ≤ 14

Verified working — step 1

Each boundary gives one inequality - and the STYLE of each line matters: solid allows equality, broken forbids it.
