Part 1
Select the correct choice below​ and, if​ necessary, fill in the answer​ box(es) to complete your choice.

Answer 1

To solve the inequality \( |x| > 9 \), we will break it down into two cases.

1. \( x > 9 \)
2. \( x < -9 \)

Thus, the solution to the inequality \( |x| > 9 \) is:

\[
x > 9 \quad \text{or} \quad x < -9
\]

### Solution in Interval Notation
In interval notation, the solution can be written as:

\[
(-\infty, -9) \cup (9, \infty)
\]

### Graphing the Solution
To graph the solution:

1. Draw an open circle at -9 and shade to the left to represent \( x < -9 \).
2. Draw another open circle at 9 and shade to the right to represent \( x > 9 \).

#### Graph Representation
\[
\text{--------------o} \quad \text{( -9 )} \quad \text{---------------------}
\]
\[
\text{-------------------o} \quad \text{( 9 )} \quad \text{----------------------}
\]

### Final Answer
The solution to the inequality \( |x| > 9 \) is \( x > 9 \) or \( x < -9 \), and the intervals are \( (-\infty, -9) \cup (9, \infty) \).
