See a solution process below:

Explanation:

First, we can graph the inequality #y >= -1# as:

  • A solid line at #-1# on the vertical access, The line is solid because the inequality operator contains an "or equal to" clause.
  • Shade above the line because the inequality operation contains a "greater than" clause

graph{ y >= -1[-10, 10, -5, 5]}

First, we can graph the inequality #x >= 3# as:

  • A solid line at #3# on the horizontal access, The line is solid because the inequality operator contains an "or equal to" clause.
  • Shade to the right of the line because the inequality operation contains a "greater than" clause

graph{ x >= 3[-10, 10, -5, 5]}

Now, we can show where the two graphs intercept:
