3x + 5y ≥ -15 (1)

3x - y > 3 (2)

From (1) let's solve for x:

3x + 5y ≥ -15

Subtract 5y from both sides:

3x ≥ -15 - 5y

Divide both sides by 3:

x ≥ -5 - 5y/3 (3)

Replace (3) into (2)

3(-5 - 5y/3) - y > 3

Using distributive property:

-15 - 5y - y > 3

-15 - 6y > 3

Solving for x:

Add 15 to both sides:

-6y > 18

Divide both sides by -6:

y < -3

Replacing y into (3)

x ≥ 0

3x - y > 3

if x = 4 and y =9

3*4 - 9 >3

12 - 9 > 3

3 > 3

this is false because 3 = 3
