Question

Responses

4m<376
4 m less than negative 376

m / 4>376
Start Fraction m over 4 End Fraction greater than 376

4m>376
4 m greater than 376

m / 4<376

Answer 1

To find the correct inequality that represents the situation where the stock market gains the same amount, \( m \), for 4 days in a row and the total gain must be less than 376 points, you can start by calculating the total gain over those 4 days, which is \( 4m \).

The requirement is that this total gain should be less than 376 points. Therefore, you can set up the inequality:

\[ 4m < 376 \]

So, the correct response is:

4m < 376
