Suppose the stock market loses the same amount, m, 4 days in a row. Which inequality shows how much the stock market could lose per day but not be lower than 376 points below its starting point?(1 point)

Answer 1

Let's assume that the starting point of the stock market is represented by S.

If the stock market loses the same amount, m, 4 days in a row, then its value after 4 days would be:

S - m - m - m - m = S - 4m

To not be lower than 376 points below its starting point, we can set up the following inequality:

S - 4m ≥ 376

Solving for m, we get:

m ≤ (S - 376) / 4

Therefore, the inequality that shows how much the stock market could lose per day but not be lower than 376 points below its starting point is:

m ≤ (S - 376) / 4
