Answer: x ≤ 9

Step-by-step explanation: When solving an inequality, your goal is the same as it would be if you were solving an equation – to get the variable by itself or isolated on one side of the equals sign.

Since 6 is being subtracted from x, add 6 to both sides of the inequality.

On the left, the -6 +6 cancel out and on the right, 3 + 6 is 9.

So we have x ≤ 9.
