Answer

Please see the graph.

Work Step by Step

Red line: $3x-2y\le4$ Blue line: $2x+y\ge5$ Green line: $y\le4$ To determine what sides of the lines to shade, we use a point not on the line. We can use (0,0) for the lines. Red line: $3x-2y\le4$ $3*0-2*0\le4$ $0-0\le4$ $0\le4$ (true, so we shade to the left of the line) Blue line: $2x+y\ge5$ $2*0+0\ge5$ $0+0 \ge 5$ $0 \ge 5$ (false, so we shade the right side of the line) Green line: $y\le4$ $0\le4$ (true, so we shade below the line) The solution area is the overlap of the three inequalities.
