Ineed to solve 6y+2y=16 but i don't know how to.

y=2. First, add similar elements are: 6y+2y=8y. And it gave us 8y=16. Then, divide by 8 from both sides of equation. And it gave us . And finally, simplify it gave us the answer is y=2 is the right answer. Hope this helps! Thank you for posting your question at here on . Have a great day! -Charlie

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
