the expression 6y^2 + 13y-5 reprsents the area of a parallelgram. Which xpression could represent the length of the base  the parallelogram?

cwrw238 · Answer

6y^2 + 13y-5  = (3y - 1)(2y + 5)
- one of these factors could be the base of the parallelogram
the other would be its perpendicular height

anonymous · Answer

but i still dont understand how to find the length

cwrw238 · Answer

the length of base could be 3y - 1 or 2y + 5

anonymous · Answer

can you explain to me hoe you got that answer

anonymous · Answer

how*

cwrw238 · Answer

area of parallelogram is given as 6y^2 + 13y-5 
and this area = length base * perpendicular height
since 6y^2 + 13y-5  = (3y - 1) times (2y + 5) either one could be length of base.
