In both problems, the sum of side lengths is the perimeter. Opposite sides of a parallelogram (or rectangle) are equal in length, so you can find the perimeter by doubling the sum of adjacent sides.

Answer:
??????????
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope f'(x) = [f(4) - f(2)]/(4-2)≥3,
so [f(4) - 13]/2 ≥3
f(4) -13 ≥ 6
f(4)≥19, so it can be as small as 19.
