A ladder is constructed with 12 steps that uniformly decrease in length. The length of the bottom step is 31cm and the length of top step is 24cm. Find the total length of the board required for the 12 steps assuming no loss due to sawing

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

-22

times both sides by 2, times () by 8, add alile terms, move terms, add alike and caculate divide both sides by 3
