Answer

Please see the graph.

Work Step by Step

Blue line: $y\ge x+1$ Orange line: $y\ge3-x$ To determine what sides of the lines to shade, we use a point not on the line. We can use $(0,0)$ for both lines. Blue line: $y\ge x+1$ $0\ge 0+1$ $0 \ge 1$ (false, so we shade the left side of the line) Orange line: $y \ge 3-x$ $0 \ge 3-0$ $0 \ge 3$ (false, so we shade the right side of the line) The solution area is the area where both inequalities overlap.
