The area of the parallelogram is (4x+16)(4x+16) square feet. write an expression for the base. expression for the base: 16x ft

Respuesta :

The area of a parallelogram is given by base * height.

Given that the parallelogram has an area of 4x + 16,

i.e. base * height = 4x + 16.

Therefore, an expression for the base of the parallelogram is given by

[tex]Base= \frac{4x+16}{height} \ ft [/tex]

Answer:

[tex]base=\frac{4x+16}{height}[/tex]   which is the required expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the area of parallelogram which is (4x+16)

And the formula for area of parallelogram is [tex]base\cdot height[/tex]

Hence, when we substitute the value if area of parallelogram in the formula we get:

[tex]4x+16=base\cdot height[/tex]

Now, rearranging the terms so, as to get the expression for the base or value of base in terms of height and area we get:

[tex]base=\frac{4x+16}{height}[/tex]   which is the required expression.
