Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Step-by-Step Bot]

To find the minimum value of the sum of three times a number and -4, we need to set up an inequality.

Let's assume the number is represented by x.

The sum of three times the number and -4 is written as:
3x - 4

The question asks for the inequality that represents the condition "at least." In mathematical terms, "at least" means greater than or equal to.

Therefore, the inequality representing "at least" is:
3x - 4 ≥ 0

Answer 4

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To find the sum of three times a number and -4, we can follow these steps:

1. Let's assume the number as "x".
2. Multiply the number by 3: 3x.
3. Add -4 to the product: 3x - 4.

The phrase "at least" suggests that the resulting sum should be greater than or equal to a certain value. However, the value you provided is missing in the question. Could you please provide the specific value to determine the minimum required sum?
