What is the answer? i don’t understand

The first thing you want to do is find out what the sqrt(7) is. Use your calculator to do this. Most calculators do it this way

7

^ or y^x or x^y or some calculators do it with a √ key see below.

0.5

=

You should get 2.64 something. If your calculator has a √ key you do it as

√

=

Regardless of that, the answer you should get is 2.64. The friend certainly did not do that. A and C are both wrong for the same reason.

What the friend did was divide by 2. So the right answer is B.

20

step-by-step explanation:

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
