Question

Find an expression for the height of a parallelogram whose area is represented by 2x^3 − x^2 − 20x + 3 and whose base is represented by (x + 3).

Answer 1

^^^^^^^

correct

Explanation:

Answer 2

The height of parallelogram is
`2x^2-7x+1`

Explanation:

Area of parallelogram =
`Base * Height`

Area of parallelogram =
`2x^3 -x^2 -20x + 3`

Base of parallelogram = x+3

So,
`2x^3-x^2-20x + 3 = height * (x+3)`

`(2x^3- x^2 -20x + 3)/(x+3)= height\\2x^2-7x+1=Height`

Hence The height of parallelogram is
`2x^2-7x+1`
