    Corner Points
    I am a bit confused about getting corner points when I only have two inequalites. The question is
    Minimize a=x+y
    Subject to: x+7y>=1
    11x+2y>=1
    x,y>=0

    I need to plot them and find the corner points, but doing it with a system of linear equations will only produce one corner point. Could someone explain to me how to get corner points in this question?

    Thanks

    Remember that x>0 and y>0 are also lines.
