⇒ 3 ≥ 0

⇒ 3 ≥ 0 (this is true)

Hence, Solution region of the given inequality is the line x ≥ 0. where, the point (3,0) is included in the region.

For equation 5:

Now draw a solid line y = 0 in the graph (because (y = 0) is the part of the given equation)

we need at least two solutions of the equation. So, we can use the following table to draw the graph:

x y
0 0
5 0

Consider y ≥ 0

Lets, select point (0,3)

⇒ 3 ≥ 0

⇒ 3 ≥ 0 (this is true)

Hence, Solution region of the given inequality is the line y ≥ 0. where, the point (0,3) is included in the region.

The graph will be as follows for Equation 1, 2. 3, 4 and 5:
