You need to substitute the values $\displaystyle{x}={1}\usepackage{cmbright}\Huge\$ and $\displaystyle{y}={2}\usepackage{cmbright}\Huge\$ into the two inequalities. When $\displaystyle{x}={1}\usepackage{cmbright}\Huge\$ and $\displaystyle{y}={2}\usepackage{cmbright}\Huge\$ are substituted into the two inequalities, they produce the statements $\displaystyle{2}\ge{2}\usepackage{cmbright}\Huge\$ and $\displaystyle{1}+{2}<{3}\usepackage{cmbright}\Huge\$ , the first statement is true and the second statement is false. To be a solution to the system the point must make both inequalities true.
