Use the CASIO FX7400G to draw the feasibility region of the system of inequalities
given below and find the integer values of the vertices:
y < - 2 x + 20
y > - 10 x + 36
y > - 2/5 x + 36/5 - Turn on the CASIO FX7400G.

- Use your cursor arrows to highlight the GRAPH menu and press
or just press
when at the main menu screen.
- Press
(the more
key).
- Press
(the more
key).
- Press
( Y < ).
- In the Y1 slot enter the expression -2 X + 20 and press

- Press
(the more
key).
- Press
(the more
key).
- Press
( Y >
).
- In the Y2 slot enter the expression -10 X + 36 and press

- In the Y3 slot enter the expression -2/5 X + 36/5
and press

(Make sure no other Y-slot is highlighted, i.e. selected for graphing.)
- Press
(V-Window)

Set up the viewing window as follows:
Xmin: 0 Ymin: 0 max : 19.5 max : 23 scl : 5 scl : 5
- Press

- Press
(DRAW)
The graph of the inequality appears on the screen of the calculator.
- Press
(Sketch)
- Press
(Plot)
Use your cursor arrows to move the "cross hairs" to the vertices of the shaded
image on the calculatorŪs screen and note the x and y values displayed at the
bottom of the screen.
My answers are: (8, 4), (3, 6), and (2, 16).
- Press

- Highlight each inequality and de-select it by pressing
or delete it by pressing
- Press
