Mustafa, Heloise, and Gia have written more than a combined total of 22 articles for the school newspaper. Heloise has written 1/4 as many articles as Mustafa has. Gia has written 3/2 as many articles as Mustafa has.

Write an inequality to determine the number of articles, mmm, Mustafa could have written for the school newspaper.

What is the solution set of the inequality?

4 answers

m + h + g >/= 22
h = m/4
g = (3/2) m
now
m + m/4 + 3 m/2 >/= 22
multiply both sides by 4
4 m + m + 6 >/= 88
11 m >/= 88
divide both sides by 11 :)
whats the ineqaulity
go to khan academy
Inequality: m+1/4m+3/2m>22

Solution: m>8
