The formula for the area of a parallelogram is a = bh, where b is the base and h is the height. which simplified expression represents the area of the parallelogram? –4x3 + 14x – 24 square centimeters 2x3 – 6x2 – 14x + 24 square centimeters –4x3 – 14x + 24 square centimeters 2x3 + 6x2 + 14x + 24 square centimeters

your answer is b: 2x3 – 6x2 – 14x + 24 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

got it right on edge

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
