Answer:

is the clean area the desired one (I assume, yes)?

then y <= 3x + 5

if the dotted area is the desired area, then

y >= 3x + 5

Explanation:

the factor of x is the slope of the line expressed as y/x ratio.

clearly, the line shows that for x changing by 1 unit y changes by 3 units. so, the slope is 3/1.

that leaves us only with the 2 middle options.

for "y <=" the desired values of y for a given x must be on the line (equal) or below (smaller than the value of the line equation). that is true, if the desired area is the clear one (no dots).

so, "y >=" is true, if the dotted area is desired.
