It depends on how you are using your iPad.  If you are streaming videos or music, or playing interactive games which require internet access a lot, you may not get a full 9 hours from your battery.  In addition, have you closed unused apps?  To do so, double tap your home button to bring up the Task Bar (most recently used apps).  Hold your finger on any of the apps on the Task Bar until they all start to jiggle and you'll see a sign on the upper left corner of each app.  Tough the to fully close them.
Finally, location services, push for mail and it's frequency can have a dramatic effect on battery usage.  Turning them off, as well as not using your screen at 100% will help reduce battery usage.
