The Diaz family and the Johnson family each used their sprinklers last summer. The water output rate for the Diaz family's sprinkler was 40 L per hour. The water output rate for the Johnson family's sprinkler was 30 L per hour. The families used their sprinklers for a combined total of 50 hours, resulting in a total water output of 1800 L. How long was each sprinkler used?

Diaz family's sprinkler: x hours
Johnson family's sprinkler: x hours

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
