Answer:

Look below

Explanation:

9 would be a solution of the inequality x>5 because x can represent any number, but because there is a > between x and 5, that means that whatever number x represents is greater than 5, and because 9 is greater than 5, it is a solution to the inequality.

Hope this helps :)
