Carol Summer is studying for AP Lit Final. She has come to you to get a recommendation as to how to focus her efforts so as to maximize her score. You know that she will have 50 minutes to take her test that has 20 multiple-choice questions and 20 short-answer questions. She has told you that she can answer a multiple-choice in 1.5 minutes and a short-answer question in 2 minutes. Each correct answer of multiple-choice receives 2 points, and a short-answer question in 3 points. Assume that any question carol answers, she gets correct. What is your recommendation to help carol receive the maximum possible score?

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

i’m here for points.

x is the total time in minutes for the free response

you are given number of questions as 15 - m and time per item as 8 minutes

to find x multiply the two givens together:

x = 8 * (15-m) = 8(15-m)
