A.) m > 3z
z could be negative and bigger than m
Ins.
B.) 4z > m
m could be negative and bigger than z
Ins.
Together:
Add inequalities:
m - 3z > 0
+(4z - m) > 0
z > 0
Since statement A says that m > 3z, we know that m must be positive as well. If they are both positive, then m + z > 0 MUST be true
C.
P.S. You can only add inequalities together. DO NOT SUBTRACT THEM!
m+z
