19 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Issac shovels driveways to earn money. He can shovel 14 driveways in 8 hours. Earns $25.00 for each driveway. Issac is saving up to buy a new computer that costs $831.25. How many hours does Issac need to work to earn enough money to purchase the computer?

Step 1 find the number of driveways to shovel

25x = $831.25

x = $831.25/25

= 33.25 driveways

Step 2

He can shovel

14 driveways = 8 hours

33.25 driveways = x

Cross Multiply

14x = 8 × 33.25

x = 8 × 33.25/14

x = 19 hours

8

step-by-step explanation:

this is a subtraction problem.

10 - 2 = 8

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
