-1/2(6x+10)=13 please help I’m a lil confused on it

x=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/2(6x+10)=13

Distribute

-3x -5 = 13

Add 5 to each side

-3x-5+5 = 13+5

-3x = 18

Divide by -3

-3x/-3 = 18/-3

x=-6

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

if a = 1,   and b = 2, then the answer is 47.99999999. if you round that to the nearest whole number, the answer is 48.
