Math Problem Statement
Identify the system of inequalities represented by this graph.
Solution
The graph you uploaded displays a system of inequalities with the following characteristics:
- The shaded region between the two curves suggests that there are two functions, one representing a parabola and another linear function.
- The blue region represents the area between the two curves above the x-axis, indicating a "greater than" inequality.
- The red region represents the area below the parabola, suggesting a "less than" inequality.
Given these observations, we can hypothesize the following system of inequalities:
- The blue region represents the area above the parabola, which suggests a quadratic function . The inequality for this part could be:
- The red region represents the area below the linear function, which seems to be a straight line with a negative slope. The equation of the line appears to be . The inequality for this part would be:
Therefore, the system of inequalities is:
This system defines the shaded region where the two conditions are satisfied simultaneously.

Tip: When graphing systems of inequalities, start by plotting the boundary lines or curves as equations first and then shade the regions that satisfy the inequalities.
