You are creating a decorated rope that is at least 20 feet long to create a rope you are using beads that are 6 inches long write and solve an inequality that represents the number of beads that you can use

The number of beads used must be at least 40 to make a decorated rope of at least 20 feet length. The inequality is:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of beads used be 'n'.

Now, length of 1 bead = 6 in

∴ Length of 'n' beads =

Now, minimum length of rope is 20 ft. Converting feet to inches, we get:

Now, beads are inserted in the rope. So, the length of rope is same as the length of all the beads joined together.

As per question, length must be at least 20 ft or 240 in.

Therefore, the length of all beads joined together must be at least 240 inches. This gives,

Therefore, the number of beads used must be at least 40 to make a decorated rope of at least 20 feet length.

none of the above.

for one of the equations to be used in the process, there has to be a term in the equation since squared is .

since there is only a term in the first equation, we cannot derive a from completing the square.

solving with completing the square

a is the correct
