2h + 8 > 3h - 6

To solve this question, we must isolate the h

Subtract 3h from both sides

2h (-3h) + 8 > 3h (-3h) - 6

2h - 3h + 8 > -6

-h + 8 > - 6

Subtract 8 from both sides to isolate the h

-h + 8 (-8) > - 6 (-8)

-h > - 6 - 8

-h > -14

Finally, isolate the h by making it a positive. To do so, divide - 1 from both sides. Note that when you divide a negative number, you must flip the sign.

-h/-1 > - 14/-1

h < 14

h < 14, or (1) is your answer

hope this helps
