Mustafa, Heloise, and Gia have written more than a combined total of 222222 articles for the school newspaper. Heloise has writt
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

  • m + m/4 + 3m/2 > 22
  • m > 8 . . . . m restricted to multiples of 4, perhaps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent the number of articles Mustafa has written. Then the total number of articles written must satisfy the inequality ...

  m +m/4 +3m/2 > 22

This has solution ...

  (11/4)m > 22

   m > (4/11)22

   m > 8 . . . . . . . . the solution to the inequality

If all the numbers are integers, and the ratios are exact, then we must have m be a multiple of 4 (that is, 4 times the number of articles Heloise wrote).

The solution set will be ...

  m ∈ {12, 16, 20, 24, ...} (multiples of 4 greater than 8)

First expression: (-7)/(-4)

Divide. Note that two negative numbers divided will result in a positive answer

(-7)/(-4) = 7/4 = 1.75

First expression: Greater than 1.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Second expression: -(3/2)

Simplify: 3/2 = 1.5

-(1.5) = -1.5

Second expression: Less than -1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Third expression: (-8/5) x (-5/8)

Note that two negatives = one positive answer when multiplying

8/5 x 5/8 = 40/40 = 1

Third expression: Neither

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fourth Expression: (-5)/(-3)

Divide: (-5)/(-3) = 5/3 = ~1.67

Fourth Expression: Greater than 1

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fifth Expression: (-9)/6

Divide: (-9)/6 = -1.5

Fifth expression: Less than -1
