$590.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Juan earns $310 every week.

He earns 5.5% on merchandise sold.

On a week he sells $5100, we need to figure 5.5% of that amount and then add $310.

$5100

X  .055

$280.50 commission.

+ 310.00 salary for the week

$590.50

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
