Just find x and y intercepts of all 3 lines by converting them in the form of x/a + y/b =1
Draw the triangle with the help of intersection of 3 lines obtained in above step. Validate whether origin is inside or not.

Take all 3 equations .Now mark them as 123
 Now take 1 and 2 equations and solve we get
X=2 Y =1
remaining 2  points  are got similarly
Now  draw the triangle on a graph and check whether the origin lies in the triangle
