  • A. x ≤ 2, y ≤ 3, y ≥ 7, x + y > 12
  • B. x ≥ 2, y ≥ 3, y ≤ 7, x + y > 12
  • C. x ≥ 3, y ≥ 2, y ≤ 7, x + y < 12
  • D. x ≥ 2, y ≥ 3, y ≤ 7, x + y < 12

Verified working — step 1

Each boundary gives one inequality - test one interior point in all four, and match the strict sign to the dashed line.

The full step-by-step working and final answer are included with Premium — checked against ECZ marking standards.
