Answer:
x [tex]\geq[/tex] -7
Step-by-step explanation:
First, I like to imagine the inequality sign as an equal sign when I'm working a problem out. This is optional and you'll change the sign back when you give the answer.
x + 9 = 2 works out the same as x + 9 [tex]\geq[/tex] 2
Subtract 9 by both sides
x + 9 [tex]\geq[/tex] 2
-9 -9
So,
x [tex]\geq[/tex] -7
