.
the product of 9 and that quantity is 9(5+t) which multiplies out to 45 + 9t.
.
Finally, that result is less than 6. So the equation becomes:
.
.
This inequality is solvable for +t. Start by getting rid of 45 on the left side by subtracting
45 from both sides to get:
.
.
which simplifies to:
.
.
Then you can solve for t by dividing both sides by +9 to get:
.
.
Note that the numerator and denominator of the right side are both divisible by 3. When you divide
them both by 3 the inequality simplifies to:
.
.
This means that the original inequality will be true whenever t is less than
which means whenever t on the number line is to the left of the point
.
.
That's the answer to the original problem.
.
Hope that this helps you to understand problem wording a little better and shows you the way
that the problem can be worked all the way to an answer for t.

the product of nine and the quantity 5 more than a number t is less than 6
Answer:
Hope you want to express it as an algebraic expression.
5 more than t can be written as t + 5
the product of nine and the quantity 5 more than a number t = 9 *(t + 5)
Again, given that
the product of nine and the quantity 5 more than a number t is less than 6
==> 9 *(t + 5) < 6, which is the corresponding algebraic expression of the given statement.
