Solve the inequality 6x+9>57 . Which of the following graphs shows the solution?(1 point) Responses Image with alt text: 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 leftward arrow is marked on the number line that originates at the open point and goes beyond negative 2. Image with alt text: 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 11. A leftward arrow is marked on the number line that originates at the open point and goes beyond negative 2. Image with alt text: 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 11. A rightward arrow is marked on the number line that originates at the open point and goes beyond 18.

To solve the inequality, we need to isolate the variable x.
First, subtract 9 from both sides:
6x + 9 - 9 > 57 - 9
6x > 48
Next, divide both sides by 6:
x > 8

Therefore, the correct graph is the first option:
