Question

Tell whether the given value is a solution of the inequality. 4h > -12; h = -5

Answer 1

-5 cannot be a possible solution

Explanation:

given:

4h > -12 (divide both sides by 4)

h > (-12) / 4

h > -3

Hence all possible solutions of h must have a value greater than -3.

Since -5 is less than -3, hence -5 cannot be a possible solution
