Answer:
The answer to your question is 10 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Inequality 12h + 240 > 360
Solve the inequality as if it was an equation
12h > 360 - 240
12h > 120
h > 120 / 12
h = 10 hours
Let's evaluate some number of hours
If h = 3 12(3) + 240 > 360
36 + 240 > 360
276 > 360 Incorrect, she needs to work more
than 3 hours
If h = 5 12(5) + 240 > 360
60 + 240 > 360
300 > 360 Incorrect, she needs to work more
than 5 hours
If h = 7 12(7) + 240 > 360
84 + 240 > 360
324 > 360 Incorrect she needs to work more
than 7 hours
If h = 11 12(11) + 240 > 360
132 + 240 > 360
372 > 360 Correct, she needs to work at least
10 hours.
