Martha’s square closet is 24 square feet, what is a reasonable estimate of the side length? PLEASE DEAR GOD HELP ME

Answer + step-by-step explanation:

Hi forschoollol027!

I recommend finding the squareroot of 24 because

in a sqaure all of the sides are equivalent to each other

The sqaureroot of 24 is a decimal answer so you could

try rounding it off. Either way, the sqaureroot of 24 (which

is what I think is the answer) is 4.89897949. Rounded to one

decimal place = 4.8, rounded to two decimal places = 4.89.

Hope this helps, if my answer or explanation is wrong    

feel free to message me in the comments :).

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
