y < 6x + 6
Let's look at results when we plug in X
a. (5, 51) 36, not greater than 51
b. (3, 21) 24, yes, greater than 21 -- this is the answr.
c. (3, 33) 24, not greater than 33.
d. (6, 46) 42, not greater than 46
Note I am reading this as the right side of the inequality as greater than left. Same as left is 'less' than right.

Test each choice until you find those that fit. Plug in x and y pair and ask, "Is this true?"
