Another inequality equation?

Question:2y>-8+y
I got 10y>y. But I have to put it on a number line. I dont know how to do it. Should it look like this?
<----------------------->
9y 10y 11y 12y
Please help =]

Answers:
10y is incorrect.

it'll be:

2y> -8+ y

y > -8

<----o======>
|||||||||^
|||||||-8

Where o is an open circle and ==== are the bold lines.
2y > --8 + y
=> 2y -- y > --8
=> y > --8
Now draw the number line and mark on it the point (--8) then y lies on its right up to infinity as
y <........
--8
