Answer: x > 6

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we have an inequality which is just a mathematical sentence which states that two expressions are not equal.

To solve for x in this inequality, our goal is the same as it would be if this were an equation, to get x by itself on one side.

Since 9 is being added to x, to get x by itself, we need to subtract 9 from both sides of the inequality to get x > 6.

The inequality x > 6 means that any number greater than 6

is a solution to the inequality.

For example, some solutions could be 7, 6.5, 11, and 98.
