Apainter painted about half the room in a half an day. coley estimated the painter would paint 7 rooms in 7days. is coley's estimate reasonable? explain

No, if Cole can only painting half a room in one day it would take him 2 days to paint a whole room therefore in 7 days he'll only have painted 3.5 rooms, not 7 rooms. Maybe he needs some help

both equations and proportions are better.

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
