Solution Steps

Step 1: Solve the Quadratic Equation

The given inequality is: \[ x^2 - 18x + 81 < 0 \]

First, solve the equation \(x^2 - 18x + 81 = 0\) to find the critical points. This is a perfect square trinomial: \[ (x - 9)^2 = 0 \]

The solution to this equation is: \[ x = 9 \]

Step 2: Analyze the Inequality

Since \((x - 9)^2\) is always non-negative and equals zero at \(x = 9\), the expression \(x^2 - 18x + 81\) is never less than zero. Therefore, the inequality \(x^2 - 18x + 81 < 0\) has no solution.

Final Answer

B. The solution set is the empty set.
