we have that
(x-9)/(7x+2)<=0

we know that
the denominator cannot be zero, therefore the value of x = -2 /7 cannot belong to the domain of the function
7x+2=0-----> x=-2/7-----> x=-0.29

using a graph tool
see the attached figure

the solution is the interval
(-2/7, 9]---------> (-0.29, 9]
the value of -0.29 is not included in the solution

therefore
the answer is the third option

For this case we have the following inequality:

(x-9)/(7x+2) \leq 0
Solving for the numerator we have:

x-9 \leq 0

x \leq 9
Solving for the denominator we have:

7x+2\ \textgreater \ 0

7x\ \textgreater \ -2

x \ \textgreater \ (-2)/(7)
Therefore, the solution is given by:

(-2)/(7) \ \textless \ x \leq 9
The graph that shows this solution is the graphic number 3.
Answer:
option 3
