An equation is shown below 9 parentheses 3x minus 16 parentheses + 15 equals 6x - 24

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

9(3x-16) + 15 = 6x -24

First distribute the 9 by multiplying it by 3x and -16

27x - 144 + 15 = 6x -24

Than combine like terms (-144+15)

27x - 129 = 6x -24

Next, subtract 6x on both sides.

21x - 129 =  -24

After that, add 129 on both sides.

21x =  105

Lastly, divide both sides by 21

x = 5

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
