The inequality is .
Apply addition property of inequality: Add 9 to each side.
\ (Apply additive inverse property:
)
(Apply additive identity property:
)
(Add:
)
Check:
\To check, substitute three different values for p into the original inequality : 11, a number less than 11, and a greater than 11.
Let three values are .
If then
(This is true)
If then
(This is false)
If then
(This is false).
