If 2y<15+3x and Y>2, which of the following is true:

I. -5<x<3
II. x>-5/3
III. x<3/5

sorry! i don get any of these...

2y<15+3x => y<(15+3x)/2
y>2

combining both,
2<(15+3x)/2

simplifying,
x>-11/3

is there an option "None of the above"??

i am back!

I found no correct answer in the given options..
I think probably x could range from -3 to 0 if x could be an integer
