The boundary line for the linear inequality has been graphed. Determine the correct half-plane and complete the graph.
y is greater than 3
---------
The boundary line is y=3.
Pick a test point on either side of the line.
Let's say you pick (0.0)
---------
Substitute that into the inequality to see if you get a true statement.
0 > 0
That is false.
That tells you that the half-place which contains (0,0) is NOT
the solution set for the inequality. The half-plane on the other
side is the solution set.
