Answer: THE GRAPH IS ATTACHED.

Explanation:

We know that the lines are:


x + 3y=-3


y = (1)/(2) x + 1

Solving for "y" from the first line, we get:


3y=-x-3\\\\y=-(x)/(3)-1

In order to graph them, we can find the x-intercepts and the y-intercepts.

For the line
x + 3y=-3 the x-intercepts is:


0=-(x)/(3)-1\\\\(1)(-3)=x\\\\x=-3

And the y-intercept is:


y=-(0)/(3)-1\\\\y=-1

For the line
y=(1)/(2) x + 1 the x-intercepts is:


0=(1)/(2) x + 1\\\\-1(2)=x\\\\x=-2

And the y-intercept is:


y=(1)/(2) (0)+ 1\\\\y=1

Now we can graph both lines, as you can observe in the image attached (The symbols
< and
> indicates that the lines must be dashed).

By definition, the solution is the intersection region of all the solutions in the system of inequalities.
