Answer:

x≤-6 or 0<x≤6.Option D.

Explanation:

Given:


(x)/(4) \leq (9)/(x).

Subtract
(9)/(x) from both sides,


(x)/(4)-(9)/(x) \leq 0

Simplifying by taking common denominator:


(x^2-36)/(4x)\leq0

Factoring numerator:


((x+6)(x-6))/(4x)\leq0

Computing the signs and selecting that one satisfies ≤ 0:

x≤ -6,0<x≤6.

Option D is the right answer.
