Graphical Inequalities
1. The problem requires identifying the shaded region that satisfies the inequalities:
$$y \leq x, \quad x \leq 4, \quad y \geq 1$$
2. Let's analyze each inequality:
- The inequality $$y \leq x$$ represents points on or below the line $$y = x$$.
- The inequality $$x \leq 4$$ represents points to the left or on the vertical line $$x = 4$$.
- The inequality $$y \geq 1$$ represents points above or on the horizontal line $$y = 1$$.
3. Combining these, the region must be inside the area bounded by these three lines:
- Below or on the diagonal line $$y = x$$.
- Left or on the vertical line $$x = 4$$.
- Above or on the horizontal line $$y = 1$$.
4. The intersection of these inequalities forms a triangular region with vertices at:
- The intersection of $$y = 1$$ and $$x = 4$$ is point $$(4,1)$$.
- The intersection of $$y = x$$ and $$x = 4$$ is point $$(4,4)$$.
- The intersection of $$y = x$$ and $$y = 1$$ is point $$(1,1)$$.
5. Therefore, the shaded region is the triangle bounded by points $$(1,1), (4,1), (4,4)$$.
6. This region satisfies all three inequalities.
Final answer: The shaded region is the triangle bounded by $$y = 1$$, $$x = 4$$, and $$y = x$$, inside the lines as described. This corresponds to the given graphic description for region R.
