4 < 5

I think that is the equality.

Answer:

4 + 1.5m ≥ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The original length of Svetlana's hair = 4 cm,

If the additional length of hair per month = 1.5 cm,

So, the total additional length of the hair after m months = 1.5m centimeters,

Hence, the total length of her hairs after m months ( in cm ) = original length + additional length

= 4 + 1.5m

According to the question,

Total length ≥ 7 cm

⇒ 4 + 1.5m ≥ 7

Which is the required inequality.
