To solve the inequality \( 6x + 9 > 57 \), we start by isolating \( x \).

1. Subtract 9 from both sides:
\[
6x > 57 - 9
\]
\[
6x > 48
\]

2. Divide both sides by 6:
\[
x > \frac{48}{6}
\]
\[
x > 8
\]

Thus, the solution to the inequality is \( x > 8 \).

Now, we need to identify which graph corresponds to this solution. The correct representation for \( x > 8 \) would be:

- An open point at 8.
- An arrow extending to the right from 8, indicating all values greater than 8.

Based on those criteria, the correct answer is:

**A number line is shown ranging from negative 2 to 18 with numbers listed in unit increments. An open point is plotted on the number line at 8. A rightward arrow is marked on the number line that originates at the open point and goes beyond 18.**
