Answer:
\Large\boxed{20 < h < 80}

Explanation:

Given inequality


|h-50| < 30

The goal of the question

To find the minimum and maximum of the relative humidities

For this question, we need to solve the inequality

Simplify the absolute value sign


h-50 < 30 or
h-50 > -30

Add 50 on both sides


h-50+50 < 30+50 or
h-50+50 > -30+50


\Large\boxed{h < 80} or
\Large\boxed{h > 20}

Hope this helps!! :)
