5(x – 2) – X – 5 = -3

5(x-2) - x - 5 = - 3

5x - 10 - x - 5 = -3

4x - 15 = -3

4x = -3 + 15

4x = 12

x = 12/ 4

Therefore x = 3.

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

i think it would be c
