Question

Find the area of the parallelogram in which the base = (2x -1)ft and the height is (4x + 5)ft.

Answer 1

`8x^2+6x-5`

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the area of the parallelogram

Mathematically, that would be the product of the length of the base and the length of the height

We have that as:

`\begin{gathered} (2x-1)(4x+5) \\ =\text{ 8x}^2+10x-4x-5 \\ =\text{ 8x}^2+6x-5 \end{gathered}`
