I've asked this question so many times and I don't get it please help: kahlil is recording a beat for a song that he is working on. He wants the length of the beat to be more than 17 seconds long. His friend tells him the beat needs to be 9 seconds longer than that to match the lyrics he has written.Write an inequality to represent the beat's length. Give three possible beat lengths that satisfy the inequality.

Let

L -------> the length of the beat

so

the inequality that represent this situation is

L > 17+9

L> 26 sec

so

three possible beat lengths are

L=30 sec

L=27 sec

L=40 sec4
