Which of the following segment lengths would justify the claim that PL || OM ? (1) LM = 8, MN = 12, PQ =10, and QN = 14
(2) LM = 5, MN = 10, PQ = 8, and QN =18
(3) LM = 6, MN = 10, PQ =9, and QN = 15
(4) LM = 10, MN = 15, PQ=12, and ON = 20

b

step-by-step explanation:

a difference is the result of subtraction. while each of these expressions has subtraction in it, a difference will be the result when subtraction is the last operation applied in the order of operations for the expression. this means subtraction must be outside of the parenthesis. only b has this.

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
