Answer:

Part A

6 2/3 +x > 82 1/3

Part B

x> 75 2/3  innings

Step-by-step explanation:

Last season he pitched 82 1/3 innings

Tonight he pitched 6 2/3 innings

Total this season was 6 2/3 +x

This was more last last season

6 2/3 +x > 82 1/3

Part A

6 2/3 +x > 82 1/3

Part B

Solving

We subtract 6 2/3 from each side

6 2/3 - 6 2/3 +x > 82 1/3 - 6 2/3

x >  82 1/3 - 6 2/3

We need to borrow 1 from the 82 for our fraction

x >  81  3/3+1/3 - 6 2/3

x> 81 - 6  + (4/3 -2/3)

x> 75 2/3
