Question

solve for h.
24 < h - 3
write the solution as an inequality (for example, h > 9).
graph the solution.
to draw a ray, plot an endpoint and select an arrow. select an endpoint to change it from closed to open. select the middle of the ray to delete it.
19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29

Explanation:

Step1: Add 3 to both sides

To solve the inequality \(24 < h - 3\), we add 3 to both sides to isolate \(h\).

$$24 + 3 < h - 3 + 3$$

Step2: Simplify both sides

Simplifying the left and right sides, we get:

$$27 < h$$

Which is equivalent to \(h > 27\).

Answer:

\(h > 27\)

For graphing: Plot an open circle at 27 (since the inequality is strict, \(h > 27\) not \(h \geq 27\)) and draw a ray to the right (towards increasing values of \(h\)) from 27.
