The first picture is what each variables equal too

-107

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Plug in variables

4(2(-3) - 1) + (-5)(6) - (-7)²

Step 2: Multiply + exponent

4(-6 - 1) - 30 - 49

Step 3: Parenthesis and multiplication

4(-7) - 30 -49

-28 - 30 - 49

Step 4: Combine like terms

-107

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
