To find the 9th term of the sequence described by the formula \( a_n = n - 3 \), we substitute \( n = 9 \) into the formula.
\[
a_9 = 9 - 3
\]
Calculating this gives:
\[
a_9 = 6
\]
Thus, the 9th term of the sequence is \( \boxed{6} \).
\[
a_9 = 9 - 3
\]
Calculating this gives:
\[
a_9 = 6
\]
Thus, the 9th term of the sequence is \( \boxed{6} \).
