Point estimate = Observations/Sample size = O/n
In the current scenario,
Observations (O) = 12 people with over 6 feet tall
Sample size (n) = 50 people selected randomly

Therefore,
Point estimate proportion of people over 6 feet tall =  12/50 = 0.24 or 24%

Mustafa, Heloise, and Gia have written more than a combined total of 22 articles for the school newspaper.
Ghella [55]

Answer:  The required inequality is x+\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{3}{2}x>22. and its solution is x>8.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Mustafa, Heloise, and Gia have written more than a combined total of 22 articles for the school newspaper.

Also, Heloise has written \frac{1}{4} as many articles as Mustafa has and Gia has written \frac{3}{2} as many articles as Mustafa has.

We are to write an inequality to determine the number of articles, m, Mustafa could have written for the school newspaper.  Also, to solve the inequality.

Since m denotes the number of articles that Mustafa could have written. Then, according to the given information, we have

x+\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{3}{2}x>22.

And the solution of the above inequality is as follows :

x+\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{3}{2}x>22\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{4x+x+6x}{4}>22\\\\\\\Rightarrow 11x>88\\\\\Rightarrow x>\dfrac{88}{11}\\\\\Rightarrow x>8.

Thus, the required inequality is x+\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{3}{2}x>22. and its solution is x>8.
