Translate:
"the sum of a number and 6 is at least 15"
x + 6 ≥ 15
x ≥ 9 [subtract 6 from both sides retains sense of inequality]
To check:
Adding any number greater than or equal to 9 to the number 6 produces a result at least 15. Any number less than 9 produces a result that is not at least 15.

TMI: I have been working to reduce my number of "fat finger" and "sleepy" typos; my goal is to get down to one per e-mail or WyzAnt Answer on the average, but I'm not quite there yet.
