Greetings!

Answer:

x > -4

Explanation:

The direction of the < or > sign only changes when numbers are multiplied or divided by negatives.

Because to simplify 9x > -36 you only need to divide by 9, the sign stays the same and the numbers are simply divided:


(9x)/(9) &nbsp;> (-36)/(9)

x > -4

So the solutuon set would be:

x


Hope this helps!
