Alvin is planning to be out of town for the day, so he asks a friend to dog-sit his 3 dogs. Each dog eats 0.5 pounds of food every day. If dog food is sold in 12-ounce cans, how many cans should Alvin leave for the time he is away?

2 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

He has 3 dogs and each eats .5 lbs

per day 3 * .5 = 1.5 lbs

He is gone for 1 day, so they will need 1.5 lbs

1 pound is 16 ounces

1.5 lbs * 16 ounces/1 lb =24 ounces

Each can is 12 ounces

24/12 = 2 cans

2 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 16 oz. in a lb.

3 x .5 lb = 1.5 lb x 16 oz/lb = 24 oz / 12 oz cans = 2 cans

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
