Solve for h. -18+7h>12+9h

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

$h$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-18+7h>12+9h$

Add 18 to both sides:

$-18+7h+18>12+9h+18$

$7h>9h+30$

Subtract 9h from both sides:

$7h>9h+30$

$-2h>30$

Multiply both sides by -1 and flip the symbol:

$\left(-2h\right)\left(-1\right)$

$2h$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\frac{2h}{2}$

$h$
