How can you solve the inequality x – 9x + 8 > 0?Graph the equation y = x – 9x + 8. Find the values of x that result in

the values of y being greater than 0. a. Highlight the points on the graph where y> 0(or above the x-axis). All of these points are solutions. b. Circle the points where the graph crosses the x-axis.These points are where the expression is equal to zero.These are not solutions. c. Draw an arrow pointing left or right from each point showing where the graph crosses the x-axis. The arrows show the direction, positive or negative, where y> 0. d. Solve for x by choosing < or > for when y> 0.
