Which of the following is the solution to the following systems of inequalities? (picture included)

  C.  (see the attachment)

Step-by-step explanation:

Both inequalities include the "or equal to" case, so both boundary lines will be solid. That excludes choices A and D.

The first inequality is plotted the same way in all graphs, so we must look at the second inequality. The relationship of y and the comparison symbol is ...

  -y ≥ (something)

If we multiply by -1, we get ...

  y ≤ (something else)

This means the solution space will be on or below (less than or equal to) the boundary line. This is the shaded area in graph C. (Graph B shows shading above the line.)

Further comment

Since the boundary for the second inequality is fairly steep, "above" and "below" the line can be difficult to see. Rather, you can consider the relationship of x to the comparison symbol. For the second inequality, that is ...

  x ≥ (something)

indicating the solution space is on or to the right of the boundary line.
