Which of the following is a solution to the inequality below? d<9 Choices: (A)d=9 (B)d=10 (C)d=7 (D)d=5

Understand the inequality: Understand the inequality d < 9. The inequality d < 9 means that d must be a number less than 9.Evaluate choices given: Evaluate the choices given to find which one is less than 9. (A) d = 9 is not less than 9, it is equal to 9.Check choice (A): Check the next choice. (B) d = 10 is not less than 9, it is greater than 9.Check choice (B): Check the next choice. (C) d = 7 is less than 9, which satisfies the inequality d < 9.Check choice (C): Check the last choice for completeness. (D) d = 5 is also less than 9, which satisfies the inequality d < 9. However, we only need to find one solution.

\newline

d<9

\newline

Choices:

\newline

d=9

\newline

(B)

d=10

\newline

(C)

d=7

\newline

(D)

d=5

Understand the inequality: Understand the inequality d < 9. $\newline$ The inequality d < 9 means that $d$ must be a number less than $9$ .
Evaluate choices given: Evaluate the choices given to find which one is less than $9$ . $\newline$ (A) $d = 9$ is not less than $9$ , it is equal to $9$ .
Check choice (A): Check the next choice. $\newline$ (B) $d = 10$ is not less than $9$ , it is greater than $9$ .
Check choice (B): Check the next choice. $\newline$ (C) $d = 7$ is less than $9$ , which satisfies the inequality d < 9.
Check choice (C): Check the last choice for completeness. $\newline$ (D) $d = 5$ is also less than $9$ , which satisfies the inequality d < 9. However, we only need to find one solution.
