8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

there is something wrong with your question.

there is no parallelogram with 8 and 6 ft side lengths that has an area of 54 ft².

the maximum area of a parallelogram with 8 and 6 ft side lengths is 48 ft². and that is a rectangle 8×6 as a special form of a parallelogram.

the area of any parallelogram is calculated

Ap = base length × height

and height is the length of the line perpendicular to the base line to one of the corners on the opposite side (as long as the base line).

if Ap = 54, and the base length is 8, this means

54 = 8 × height

height = 54/8 = 6.75 ft

but the height can only be the length of a side connected to the base line or less. not longer.

and in our example here, this connected side is 6. so, the height can only be 6 or less. not 6.75.

so, there must be something wrong with your numbers.

once you get the actual numbers, use my approach above with them (replace whatever number is wrong here by the true value).

lukranit [14]

the bottom of the pool is 15 x 30 = 450 sq feet.

 you the have 2 walls that are 30 x 5 = 150 x 2 = 300 square feet

 then 2 walls that are 15 x 5 = 75 x 2 = 150 square feet

 for a total of 450 +300 +150 = 900 square feet

 1 can covers 250 sq ft

so 900/250 = 3.6

 so you would need 4 cans of paint

Sliva [168]
The correct answer is a. 3125

That's because the letter can be used more than once, so if you start and try everything from aaaaa, to ttttt, the possibilities are huge and much larger than any of the lower numbers.
