I will give brainiest to who ever helped me on this one

4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so they leave the same port. Since they are traveling at the same rate at 24mph, in one hour they will each be 24 miles from the port. Since they are going in opposite directions, they will be 24+24= 48 miles apart. Let another hour pass. They each go 24 more miles from the port so add another 48 to their distance apart. Now their distance is 96 miles apart. Let a third hour pass. Add 48. Now their distance is 144 miles apart. Let the fourth and final hour pass. Now they are 192 miles apart. So, it'll take them  4 hours to be 192 miles apart.

A visual way to interpret this problem is on a number line. We'll have steamer A going to the right of our origin 0 (the port) and steamer B going left. After one hour, steamer A will be at 24 on the number line, and steamer B will be at -24. the distance between these two points is 48. If you continue with the second, third and fourth hours they will each be going 24 points further from the origin, making their distance grow further and further apart by 48 points each hour.

I also completed the table for you :)

Hope this helps.

step-by-step explanation

e2020 got it right

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
