Answer

$x\geq0$ $x\leq4$ $y\geq0$ $y\leq-x+6$

Work Step by Step

There are two vertical lines: x=0 and x=4 The area is to the right of x=0, so $x\geq0$, and it is to the left of x=4, so $x\leq4.$ There is one horizontal line: y=0 The area is above that line, so $y\geq0$. There is a linear function with a slope of $m=\frac{2-6}{4-0}=\frac{-4}{4}=-1$ and a y-intercept of (0,6). The area is under the line, so the equation is: $y\leq-x+6$.
