Komodo dragons are the heaviest lizards on earth. A baby Komodo dragon is 1 3/4 feet long when it hatches. It’s mother is 8 3/4 feet long. An adult male Komodo dragon is 6 times as long as the baby Komodo dragon.

How long is the male?

How much longer is the male than the mother?

An adult male Komodo dragon is feet.

Therefore the male is feet longer than the mother.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A baby dragon is feet long.

It's mother is feet.

An adult male Komodo dragon is 6 times as long as the baby Komodo dragon.

So, an adult male Komodo dragon is =(6× ) feet

                                                          feet

                                                          feet

                                                         = feet.

                                                          feet.

Therefore the male is feet longer than the mother.

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

the answer is 489
