Answer:

I have added a drawing showing the answer to the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, one needs to isolate the variable. To do this, subtract nine from both sides. We then get 5x < -5. If we simplify by dividing by 5 on both sides, we get x < -1. One can graph this by drawing an arrow to the left of -1. Note that one must used an open circle to demonstrate a “<” and not a “≤” sign.
