Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In parallelogram, opposite sides are parallel and equal
3x + 7 = 5x -17
3x - 5x = -17 - 7
-2x = - 24
x = -24 /-2
x = 12
The answer is: "4" .

<u>Note</u>: The question asks for a whole number.
"The area of the triangle above will equal one half of a rectangle that is 5 units long and <u> 4 </u><u /> units wide. (Input only whole numbers, such as 8.).
______________________________________________________
<u>Note</u>: The diagram shows a "right triangle" ; which would be "one-half" of a rectangle, with units of "length" being "5 units" (as mentioned in this very question prompt; and a width of "4" units (as shown in the diagram; hence the answer is "4" units).
Furthermore, the formula/equation for the area, "A" , of a triangle is:
A = (1/2) * b * h ;
that is:
Area = (1/2) * (base length) * (perpendicular height).

As such, the answer, "4" (units) makes sense.
