Hey there! 

To find the area of a parallelogram, you multiply the length and the width together, the exact same method you would use to find the area of a rectangle or square.

The reason you would use the same area formula of a rectangle/square to find the area of a parallelogram would be that all rectangles are parallelograms (however, not all parallelograms are rectangles).
**Rectangles are a special kind of parallelogram: they are parallelograms with right angles formed in the corners of the figure.

Another thing to keep in mind is to imagine this: if you were to split the parallelogram from the top left corner straight down, you will get a triangular figure. If you were to move this triangular figure to fill in the right slanted part of the parallelogram, you would have a rectangle.

Now, to solve for the area. Because the formula is A=Base (or the length)*Height (or the width), you should have this expression:
A=20*27

This would simplify to 540 cm squared, which would be your answer.

Hope this helps and have a wonderful day! :)

Answer:

s=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the 3 to the (s+2) 3(s+2)= 3s+6

Subtract 6 from three 3s+6=3  -> 3s=-3

Divide -3 by 3 3s=-3 -> s=\frac{-3}{3}

Simplify to -1

Find the inverse g(x)=x/5-6
STALIN [3.7K]
Interpreted: g(x) = \frac{x}{5} - 6
Let y = g(x)
y = \frac{x}{5} - 6
x = \frac{y}{5} - 6 (Interchange the x and y-values)

\frac{y}{5} = x + 6 (Solve for y)
y = 5(x + 6)

\therefore g^{-1}(x) = 5(x + 6)
