a. what is the cost of the bowl?
b. what is the cost of the plate?

The cost of each bowl is $4.06

The cost of each plate is $2.03

Step-by-step explanation:

14.21 ÷ 7 = 2.03

2.03 × 2 = $4.06

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
