Answer is above the dashed line

Step-by-step explanation

A dashed line is used in inequalities to show the solution is above or below the line but not ON the line (more than or less than symbols).
A solid line is used for solutions that are more than or equal, or less than or equal to the points on that line.

So 6y -3x > 9 tells us the solution is more than 9 but not equal to 9 so it’s above the dashed line

x > -3 and y > 1.5
