Leroy and Aaron have $7.20. Aaron has five times as much as Leroy. How much
does each boy have?

Leroy has $1.20 , Aaron has $6.00

Step-by-step explanation:

let Leroy have x , then Aaron has 5x , so

x + 5x = 7.20

6x = 7.20 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 1.20

Then

Leroy has $1.20 and Aaron has 5 × $1.20 = $6.00

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
