Question

Tara is taller than Jeff. Jeff is 47 inches tall. Write an inequality that compares Tara's height in inches, t, to Jeff's height.

Answer 1

Tara's height is unknown, so a variable (in this case, the letter "t") would be used in place of her height. However, we do know that Tara is taller than Jeff, which would make her height greater than his. Therefore, we can use the following inequality to represent this situation.

t>47.

Answer 2

t > 47
