Solution Steps

Step 1: Translate the Sentence into an Inequality

The problem statement asks us to translate the sentence "The sum of 9 and \( y \) is greater than or equal to 18" into a mathematical inequality. This can be expressed as:

\[ 9 + y \geq 18 \]

Step 2: Solve the Inequality for \( y \)

To find the values of \( y \) that satisfy the inequality, we need to isolate \( y \) on one side. We do this by subtracting 9 from both sides of the inequality:

\[ y \geq 18 - 9 \]

Simplifying the right side gives:

\[ y \geq 9 \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{y \geq 9}\)
