To graph

4y > 3x - 5

think first in the line

4y = 3x - 5

then, find two points of the line, for example when x = 0, then:

4y = 3*0 - 5

4y = -5

y = -5/4

when y = 0, then:

4*0 = 3x - 5

0 = 3x - 5

5 = 3x

5/3 = x

so, points (0, -5/4) and (5/3, 0) lie on the line.

Graph the line that passes through these points. Use a dashed line, because there is a > in the inequality (points on the line don't satisfy the inequality).

Then, select a point and check if it satisfies the inequality. For example point (0,0)

4*0 > 3*0 - 5

0 > -5

The inequality is satisfied by (0,0), therefore you have to fill the area above the dashed line.

Answer:

Graph a dashed line through points (0,-5/4) and (5/3,0), and fill in the area above the curve.
