To solve the inequality -8 + 9q < 10, we can start by isolating the variable q.

Adding 8 to both sides of the inequality, we get:

-8 + 8 + 9q < 10 + 8

9q < 18

Next, divide both sides of the inequality by 9:

(9q)/9 < 18/9

q < 2

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is q < 2.

To graph the solution on a number line, we plot an open circle at 2 and shade to the left of it. This represents all the values of q that are less than 2.
