Answer

Please see the graph.

Work Step by Step

Orange line: $3x+4y \leq12$ Red line: $x-2y > 6$ To determine what sides of the lines to shade, we pick the point $(0,0)$ and determine if the inequalities are valid. We will use a solid orange line and a dotted red line since the two inequalities respectively have a less than or equal to sign and a greater than sign. $(0,0)$ $3x+4y \leq12$ $3*0+4*0 \leq12$ $0+0 \leq 12$ $ 0 \leq 12$ (true, so we shade the side of the line with the point) $(0,0)$ $x-2y > 6$ $0-2*0 > 6$ $0 - 0 > 6$ $0 > 6$ (false, so we shade the side of the line with the point) The overlap of the two graphs is the solution set for the system.
