$x \leq 9.7 \times 6$ $x<=9.7xx6$

Explanation:

Let $x$ $x$ equal the total number of points. We know that the athlete competed in 6 events and did not average more than 9.7 points. $x$ $x$ is equal to the number of matches times the average score for each match (which is less than or equal to 9.7).
