How much did the puppy weight at birth?

The puppy weighed 6 pounds at birth.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can see that the puppy gains weight in a steady pace of 2.5 pounds every week :

4 weeks : 16 pounds

4x2.5 = 10 pounds

16 pounds - 10 pounds, because 0 weeks means starting at 0 years old. 16 - 10 = 6 pounds.

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
