Answer:

a. y > 2x +3

Explanation:

Your worksheet tells you that the > and < symbols will show as a dashed line. That eliminates the last two choices. (They use the ≥ and ≤ symbols.)

The shading is above the line, so the appropriate relation is the one that includes y-values greater than those on the line:

y > ... (matches choice a.)
