A community builds a sandbox section and a playground section at one of the local parks. The area of the playground section is 2,575 square feet. It is 100 square feet more than 5.5 times the area of the sandbox section. Write an equation that can be used to determine the area, A, of the sandbox section. Solve the equation to find the area of the sandbox section showing all work.

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

493 would be the correct answer
