7.4a + 44.4 = 3.2a + 86.4

a=10 i just was confirming the other dudes answer and showing steps:)

Step-by-step explanation:

7.4a=3.2a+42

4.2a=42

a=10

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
