I know its a solid line but i dont know how to figure out if it includes the origin

hero (hero):

Now why do you think it is a solid line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whoops! meant i know its dashed sorry

hero (hero):

Okay, so I helped you eliminate two of the answers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but how do I figure out if it includes the origin

hero (hero):

By substituting the point (x,y) = (0,0) into y > 6 + 3x: 0 > 6 + 3(0) Finish the rest

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0>6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it includes the origin ?

hero (hero):

Now is 0 > 6 true or false?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
