Hii!

Answer:

x<2

Explanation:

First we multiply 9 times both 2 and 3x (the parentheses indicate that).

We obtain 18+27x.

The entire inequality is 18+27x<72.

Next, subtract 18 from both sides

27x<72-18


\sf 27x < 54. Now we divide both sides by 27


\sf x < 2

Hope that this helped! Best wishes.
