h =>79
To translate the sentence "The height of the members of the basketball team is at least 79 inches" to an algebraic inequality, we first identify the key phrase "at least."
The phrase "at least" in mathematical terms typically means greater than or equal to. Therefore, we can write the inequality using the symbol "≥."
Let's assign a variable (let's say "h") to represent the height of the members of the basketball team. The sentence would translate to the following algebraic inequality:
h ≥ 79
This inequality states that the height, represented by "h," is greater than or equal to 79 inches.
