The graph of y= x^2 is changed to y= x^2 - 3. how does this change in the equation affect the graph? a.) the parabola shifts 3 units up. b.) the parabola shifts 3 units down. c.) the parabola becomes 3 units under d.) the parabola becomes 3 units narrower.

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

ou would have 12 of each
