1. The problem asks for the three inequalities that define the unshaded triangular region bounded by three lines.
2. The first boundary is a solid decreasing line through points (0,12) and (6,0). The slope is calculated as:
$$m = \frac{0 - 12}{6 - 0} = \frac{-12}{6} = -2$$
The equation of the line using point-slope form with point (0,12) is:
$$y - 12 = -2(x - 0) \implies y = -2x + 12$$
Since the region is to the right of this line and the line is solid, the inequality is:
$$y \leq -2x + 12$$
3. The second boundary is a dashed increasing line through points (0,3) and (8,11). The slope is:
$$m = \frac{11 - 3}{8 - 0} = \frac{8}{8} = 1$$
The equation of the line is:
$$y - 3 = 1(x - 0) \implies y = x + 3$$
Since the region is above this dashed line, the inequality is:
$$y > x + 3$$
4. The third boundary is a solid vertical line at:
$$x = 4$$
The region is to the left of this line, so the inequality is:
$$x \leq 4$$
5. Therefore, the three inequalities defining the unshaded triangular region are:
$$\boxed{\begin{cases} y \leq -2x + 12 \\ y > x + 3 \\ x \leq 4 \end{cases}}$$
