Answer:
<u>For one Necklace you would need...</u>
24 blue beads.
16 white beads.
4 green beads.
Ratio: 24: 16: 4
Step-by-step explanation:
If you quadruple the amount of beads from the original amount (6 : 4: 1), the total beads for that necklace will be 44.
Step 1: 6 x 4 = 24 (amount of blue beads in necklace).
Step 2: 4 x 4 = 16 (amount of white beads in necklace).
Step 3: 1 x 4 = 4 (amount of green beads in necklace).
Now check to see if the total of all types of beads sum up to 44:
Step 4: 24 + 16 + 4 = 44

There is your answer:
You need 24 blue beads, 16 white beads, and 4 green beads to have a total sum of 44 beads in that one necklace.
I am going to explain this using the substitution method, considering it appears to be the best in this situation.
We know (from the bottom equation) that y can equal 3x+20. Using this knowledge, we substitute the y in the top equation for 3x+20. Now, we have an equation that looks like this:
3x+20=x^2+2x
Now we need to move x to one side and then do some radicals (square roots).
Subtract the 2x on the right (since it is smaller, negatives = NONONO), which will give you
x+20=x^2
Now, we take the square root of both sides to get
rad(x+20)=x
Now we have to simplify. 20 doesn't have a square root, but 4 goes into 20, and 4 has a square root of 2. This now becomes
2rad(x+5)
This doesn't simplify any further... we have a problem... no way to isolate x as far as my knowledge goes... Sorry, can't help you any further than that, but another person or your teacher might be able to. R.I.P...
Divid both sides by 3
x<-3
{x | x<-3}
