Question 979584: The area of a paralleogram is a=bh. The parallelogram is 40 sq. units. What is the base and the height base 3x+1, height is x+1

Area of a parallelogram is bh
(3x+1)(x+1)=40
3x^2+4x+1=40
3x^2+4x-39=0
(3x+13)(x-3)=0
x=3, -(13/4), and the second is impossible.
base is 3x+1=10 units
height is 3+1=4 units
