The equation given was: (x) + (x + 3) + (x - 2) + 3(x + 3) - 1 = 87. Using this equation, write the equation with fewer terms.

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

(x) + (x + 3) + (x - 2) + 3(x + 3) - 1 = 87

x + x + 3 + x - 2 + 3x + 9 - 1 = 87

6x + 9 = 87

6x = 87 - 9

6x = 78

x = 78/6

x = 13

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
