The equation for the given phrase is 6x-9=-15 and the solution for the obtained equation is -1.
The given phrase is "nine less than six times a number is -15."
Let the unknown number be x.
Here, six times a number = 6x
The product is less than 9, that is
6x-9
Nine less than six times a number is -15, so the equation is
6x-9=-15
Now, the solution is
6x=-15+9
6x=-6
x=-6/6
x=-1
Therefore, the equation for the given phrase is 6x-9=-15 and the solution for the obtained equation is -1.

Hello!
6 - 9 × y = -15
When "less than" is used you switch the number before it the number after it. While it seems like it would be 9 -6, its actually 6-9
6 - 9 is -3, you can multiply 3 by 5, to get 15. So your answer would be 5
Hope this helps!
