Example: Find the coordinates of the vertices of the triangle formed by 5x + 4y < 20, y < 2x + 3, and x 3y < 4.
Graph each inequality. The intersections of the boundary lines are the
vertices of a triangle. The vertex (4, 0) can be determined from the graph.
To find the coordinates of the second and third vertices, solve the two
systems of equations
