Detailed Solution & Explanation

Let's analyze the region represented by the inequalities:
1) L1=X1+X24\displaystyle L_1 = X_1 + X_2 \le 4
2) L2=2X1+X26\displaystyle L_2 = 2X_1 + X_2 \ge 6

Let's find the intercepts of both boundary lines:
- The line L1:X1+X2=4\displaystyle L_1: X_1 + X_2 = 4 has intercepts (4,0)\displaystyle (4, 0) and (0,4)\displaystyle (0, 4). The region X1+X24\displaystyle X_1 + X_2 \le 4 lies below/on this line, containing the origin.
- The line L2:2X1+X2=6\displaystyle L_2: 2X_1 + X_2 = 6 has intercepts (3,0)\displaystyle (3, 0) and (0,6)\displaystyle (0, 6). The region 2X1+X26\displaystyle 2X_1 + X_2 \ge 6 lies above/on this line, excluding the origin.

Since these two regions do not overlap inside the bounded triangle OAB\displaystyle OAB, the common region lies outside of OAB\displaystyle OAB.

Hence, **Option B** is the correct answer.
