Mr brown has a flower garden in the shape of a parallelogram. the lenght of the base of the garden is 9.5 feet and the height is 4.2 feet. what is the area of the flower garden?

8

step-by-step explanation:

this is a subtraction problem.

10 - 2 = 8

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
