Copy and paste them into a word processing document? TextEdit (included
as part of OSX) will handle this, if you've nothing else.

I probably ought to add you'll need to make the TextEdit document RTF
format (Format->Make Rich Text) if you've previously set it to plain
text by default, and you can just drag and drop the image files right
into the document.

1 using something which can create PDFs (such as Preview) build a PDF using the nine JPGs and fax that.
2 open your word processor of choice (Word, Pages, even TextEdit) and import the pix into a document, and fax that.
3 print them out, scan them into a single PDF document using Image Capture or Preview, and fax that.
4 as you have the original document, scan it directly to a PDF, and fax that.
5 print the files out, put them into the ADF of a fax machine, and fax 'em.
I personally would have scanned 'em to a PDF in the first place, or just faxed 'em straight from the ADF on my MFD and not bothered scanning them at all.
And none of the above is dependent on the OS version. Indeed, the main problem is to be able to fax, and for that you need a fax modem (Apple's external USB fax modem will work up to 10.5.8, but not with 10.6 or later; other vendors have fax modems which will work with 10.6 and later) or a MFD which can fax. Once you have either sending the fax is trivial.

Or a Web site like <http://faxzero.com/>, which will send a 9-page fax for $1.99.

Some multi-function printers also still include the ability to fax scanned
or "printed" documents.

Um, do you have a faxmodem on your machine? They haven't been common in a few years.
I regularly fax from my machines using an online fax service. There's a specialized app (though I think they have a web-based option as well) and it lets me fill in the destination number and add all the files I like and an optional cover page.
In my case, I'd start up the app, drag and drop those nine files into the window, put in a number and hit the send button.
But I have no reason to think you're using such an app. How did you intend do to this?
If you really just mean how can you combine the images into a single document, there are a variety of options from pasting them all into a textedit or word processing document to using Preview (though I'm not sure if Preview from 10.5 will do it).

You can use fopydo (it's free) to create a PDF document from your images, then fax that using one of the webfax services or your fax software and modem if it still works on your system.
