What is the graph of y > 3x?

  1. A line that passes through the origin

  2. A line that passes through the y-axis

  3. A line that passes through the x-axis

  4. A line that is parallel to the x-axis

The correct answer is: A line that is parallel to the x-axis

The graph of y > 3x represents a line that is parallel to the x-axis. The other options are incorrect because they do not satisfy the inequality. Option A and B would have a slope of 3, not greater than 3. Option C would have a negative slope and would not satisfy the "greater than" condition. Thus, option D is the only correct answer.
