let's bear in mind that an absolute value expression is in effect a piece-wise expression,  namely it has a ± versions of the same expression.

\bf 5|3x-4| = x+1\implies |3x-4|=\cfrac{x+1}{5}\implies \begin{cases} +(3x-4)=\cfrac{x+1}{5}\\[1em] -(3x-4)=\cfrac{x+1}{5} \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ +(3x-4)=\cfrac{x+1}{5}\implies 3x-4=\cfrac{x+1}{5}\implies 15x-20=x+1 \\\\\\ 14x-20=1\implies 14x=21\implies x = \cfrac{21}{14}\implies \boxed{x=\cfrac{3}{2}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ -(3x-4)=\cfrac{x+1}{5}\implies -3x+4=\cfrac{x+1}{5}\implies -15x+20=x+1 \\\\\\ 20=16x+1\implies 19=16x\implies \boxed{\cfrac{19}{16}=x}

When we do this, the base of the parallelogram has length b 1 + b 2, and the height is the same as the trapezoids, so the area of the parallelogram is (b 1 + b 2)*h. Since the two trapezoids of the same size created this parallelogram, the area of one of those trapezoids is one half the area of the parallelogram
