1. The problem involves solving and graphing the system of inequalities:
$$3x + 2y \leq 5$$
$$2x + 3y \geq 5$$
$$2x + 3y \leq 5$$
$$3x + 2y \geq 5$$
2. Each inequality represents a half-plane bounded by a line. The goal is to find the region that satisfies all inequalities simultaneously.
3. Let's analyze the first inequality: $$3x + 2y \leq 5$$.
- The boundary line is $$3x + 2y = 5$$.
- To graph, find intercepts:
- When $$x=0$$, $$2y=5 \Rightarrow y=\frac{5}{2}$$.
- When $$y=0$$, $$3x=5 \Rightarrow x=\frac{5}{3}$$.
4. The slope of the line is $$-\frac{3}{2}$$ (from rearranging to $$y = -\frac{3}{2}x + \frac{5}{2}$$).
5. The shaded region is below or on the line because of the \(\leq\) sign.
6. The second inequality is $$2x + 3y \geq 5$$.
- Boundary line: $$2x + 3y = 5$$.
- Intercepts:
- $$x=0 \Rightarrow 3y=5 \Rightarrow y=\frac{5}{3}$$.
- $$y=0 \Rightarrow 2x=5 \Rightarrow x=\frac{5}{2}$$.
- Slope is $$-\frac{2}{3}$$.
- The shaded region is above or on the line.
7. The third inequality $$2x + 3y \leq 5$$ is the opposite of the second, so the shaded region is below or on the line $$2x + 3y = 5$$.
8. The fourth inequality $$3x + 2y \geq 5$$ is the opposite of the first, so the shaded region is above or on the line $$3x + 2y = 5$$.
9. Since the second and third inequalities contradict each other (one \(\geq\), one \(\leq\) for the same line), and similarly for the first and fourth, the system has no solution where all inequalities hold simultaneously.
10. The graph description matches the line $$3x + 2y = 5$$ with slope $$-\frac{3}{2}$$ and intercept $$\frac{5}{2}$$, shading below and to the left.
Final answer: The system of inequalities has no common solution region because the inequalities contradict each other.
