The correct answer is: $-\frac{19}{6}$
Value of the integral $\int_{2}^{9} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \mathrm{d} \mathrm{x}$
$=\int_{-3}^{9} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \mathrm{d} \mathrm{x}-\int_{-3}^{2} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \mathrm{dx}$
Given, $\int_{-3}^{9} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \mathrm{d} \mathrm{x}=\frac{-5}{6}$ and $\int_{-3}^{2} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \mathrm{d} \mathrm{x}=\frac{7}{3}$
Putting these values in equation (i)
$\int_{2}^{9} f(x) d x=\frac{-5}{6}-\frac{7}{3}=-\frac{19}{6}$
