Answer: x > 20

Explanation:

9 - x < - 11

In this scenario, we've to collect like terms in order to.wolve for x. This will be:

9 - x < - 11

- x < - 11 - 9

- x < - 20

Divide both side by -1

-x/-1 < -20/-1

When we divide by a coefficient with minus sign, the sign changes too from less than to greater than

-x/-1 < -20/-1

x > 20
