Answer: x-6 < -15

=======================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

"six subtracted from x" translates to "x-6"

So the word problem updates to "x-6 is less than -15"

Then we replace the "is less than" with "<" without quotes.

---------

Extra info: If you want to solve for x, then we add 6 to both sides like so

x-6 < -15

x-6+6 < -15+6

x+0 < -9

x < -9

So any number smaller than -9 will work in place of x.
