You can put this solution on YOUR website!
start with:

12y + 6 > 9
subtract 6 from both sides of the inequality to get 12y > 3
divide both sides of the inequality by 12 to get y > 3/12 which becomes y > 1/4.
your solution is that y > 1/4.
in interval notation, that would be (1/4, infinity).
that looks like selection C.
