Given the inequality statement:
The product of 9 and x is less than or equal to -17
Solution:
This can be represented as,
9x ≤ -17
In order to determine the solution for the inequality, we need to divide both sides of the equation by 9. This will cancel out 9x leaving behind x.
9x/9 ≤ -17/9
x ≤ -1.89
Final answer:
x ≤ -1.89
