The solution region of the inequality \(2x+4y \le 9\) is:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → closed half plane containing origin
The sign is ≤ (“less than or equal to”), so the points of the line 2x + 4y = 9 also satisfy the inequality. A half plane that includes its boundary line is a closed half plane; with a strict sign (< or >) it would be open.
Testing the origin:
\(2(0) + 4(0) = 0 \le 9\), true
So the solution region is the closed half plane on the side of the line that contains the origin.
