Answer:

The solution to the inequality is;


x<-81

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the inequality;


-(1)/(9)x>9

Firstly, let's multiply both sides of the equation by 9;


\begin{gathered} -(1)/(9)x*9>9*9 \\ -(9)/(9)x>81 \\ -x>81 \end{gathered}

Then we can multiply both sides by -1.

Note that when we multiply both sides by a negative number(-1) the sign will change;


>\rightarrow<

So;


\begin{gathered} -x*-1>81*-1 \\ x<-81 \end{gathered}

The solution to the inequality is;


x<-81
