Full solution

Q. Tara is taller than Jeff. Jeff is 120120 centimeters tall.\newlineWrite an inequality that compares Tara's height in centimeters, h h , to Jeff's height.
  1. Given Information: We are given that Tara is taller than Jeff, and Jeff is 120120 centimeters tall. To represent Tara's height with an inequality, we need to use a symbol that indicates that Tara's height is greater than Jeff's height.
  2. Inequality Representation: Let hh represent Tara's height in centimeters. Since Tara is taller than Jeff, we can write the inequality as h > 120, where 120120 represents Jeff's height in centimeters.
  3. Checking Validity: We should check if the inequality makes sense. If Tara is taller than Jeff, her height should be a number greater than 120120. The inequality h > 120 correctly shows that Tara's height is more than 120120 centimeters.
