The owner of a smoothie company wants to rent a kiosk in the new mall. He is choosing between two spaces. Both have floor plans shaped like parallelograms. The first space is 12 feet wide and 16 feet long. The second space is 13 feet wide and 15 feet long. Which is the larger space? Explain.

The second space (13 feet wide & 15 feet long) is the larger space.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

Thus, The Area Of Rectangle = Length x Width ⇒ 12 × 16 ⇔ 192 Feet² .

Thus, The Area Of Rectangle = Length x Width ⇒ 13 × 15 ⇔ 195 Feet² . Hence it is Clearly Shown here the The second space (13 feet wide & 15 feet long) is the larger space .

let soccer = x and golf = y

part a

1st equation: x + y = 125

2nd equation: x = y +45

part b

replace x in the 1st equation with the 2nd one:

y + 45 + y = 125

simplify:

2y + 45 = 125

subtract 45 from each side:

2y = 80

divide both sides by 2:

y = 80/2

y = 40

she plays golf for 40 minutes.

part c

no because she plays soccer for 45 minutes longer than golf 40 +45 =   85 minutes, not 80 minutes.
