Answer:

26. m > -3

27. x > 3

28. h ≥ 6

Explanation:

26. Solve the inequality by dividing both sides by -8. Remember that when you multiply or divide by a negative number on both sides, you need to reverse the direction of the inequality.
-8m < 24

m > -3

27. Solve the inequality by subtracting 8 from each side. Then, divide each side by 4. There's no need to flip the inequality this time because our divisor is not negative.

4x + 8 > 20

4x > 12

x > 3

28. Solve the inequality by multiplying each side by -2. We need to flip the inequality this time. Generally, it is better to have the variable on the left, and its value on the right.

-3 ≥ h/-2

6 ≤ h

h ≥ 6
