1. this package of sliced cheese costs $2.97 how much would a package with 18 slices cost at the same price per slice explain or show your reasoning (11thin slices)

$4.86

Step-by-step explanation:

The package of cheese that cost $2.97 has 11 slices. To know how much each slice costs, we need to divide $2.97 by 11.

That is $2.97/11 = $0.27 per slice

Now we need to calculate how much would cost a package of 18 slices with the same price per slice.

As we now know that each slice costs $0.27, we just need to multiply 18 by $0.27 to know the total price.

That is 18*$0.27 = $4.86

A package with 18 slices would cost $4.86.

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
