The number of houses Habitat for Humanity can build varies directly with the number of volunteers. How many houses can be built with 60 volunteers?

60y

where y is the number of houses each volunteer can build

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll assume this is a complete question and i'll try to solve it the best way i can mathematically.

Let us assume that one volunteer can build a certain number of houses, say y houses.

Also, it is stated that the amount of houses that can be built varies directly as the with the number of volunteers. Therefore, it will be mathematically logical to say that if 1 volunteer can build y number of houses, then 60 volunteers will build 60y houses

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
