1. The problem involves evaluating inequalities and expressions given as:
- $x7 - 4$
- $\frac{1}{4}x$
- $3$
- $2c = -4$
- $2c < -4$
- $24c > -8$
2. First, interpret each expression:
- $x7 - 4$ likely means $7x - 4$.
- $\frac{1}{4}x$ is a linear expression.
- $3$ is a constant.
- $2c = -4$ is an equation.
- $2c < -4$ is an inequality.
- $24c > -8$ is another inequality.
3. Solve the equation $2c = -4$:
$$
2c = -4 \\
c = \frac{-4}{2} = -2
$$
4. Solve the inequality $2c < -4$:
$$
2c < -4 \\
c < \frac{-4}{2} = -2
$$
5. Solve the inequality $24c > -8$:
$$
24c > -8 \\
c > \frac{-8}{24} = -\frac{1}{3}
$$
6. Check if these solutions exist:
- The equation $2c = -4$ has a solution $c = -2$.
- The inequality $2c < -4$ has solutions for all $c < -2$.
- The inequality $24c > -8$ has solutions for all $c > -\frac{1}{3}$.
7. Note that the inequalities $2c < -4$ and $24c > -8$ do not overlap because $c$ cannot be simultaneously less than $-2$ and greater than $-\frac{1}{3}$.
8. The expressions $7x - 4$, $\frac{1}{4}x$, and $3$ are linear or constant and exist for all real $x$.
Final answers:
- $c = -2$ satisfies $2c = -4$.
- $c < -2$ satisfies $2c < -4$.
- $c > -\frac{1}{3}$ satisfies $24c > -8$.
- Expressions $7x - 4$, $\frac{1}{4}x$, and $3$ exist for all real $x$.
