Question 3: Thearea of theparallelogram is 27square meters. Findthe value of x(picture below rightside.).parallelogram32x-5

Answer 1

According to the given data we have the following:

area of the parallelogram=27 square meters

b=2x-5

h=3

Therefore in order to calculate the value of x we would use the formula to calculate the area.

So, if area=b*h

Hence, 27=(2x-5)*3

27=10x-15

27+15=10x

42=10x

x=42/10

x=4.2

Therefore, the value of the x would be 4.2
