How to determine all the basic solutions of an optimizationproblem, and classify them as feasible or infeasible?

As an example,

Maximize z= 2x1 + 3x2

Subject to:

x1 + 3x2 <= 6

3x1 + 2x2 <= 6

x1 + x2 >= 0

Some solutions are (2,0), (0,2), (0,0), (6/7, 12/7), but arethere more solutions? And how do you tell if they areinfeasile/feasible? Would you need to graph it?
