so, we start off by graphing its equal counterpart, its EQUALity, so we'll graph the line of y = 3x - 5.
is the line dashed or not? well y > means, "y" is greater than, not equals to, but greater than, meaning the values at the border are not included, since "y" doesn't equal them, so the line is dashed.
to do the shading, then we run a false/true test on a point on either region.....hmmmm say let's test the origin, namely 0,0,
x = 0, y = 0.
0 > 3(0) - 5
0 > -5 ................. is that true? is 0 greater than -5?, well yes, is true.
recall that on the negative side, the closer to 0, the larger the number, so -1 is greater than -1,000,000.
so the origin is in the True region, so we shade that, Check the picture below.
