7x × 5x = 617.4
35x^2 = 617.4
x^2 = 617.4 / 35
x^2 = 17.64
× = 4.2
7x = 7×4.2 = 29.4
5x = 5×4.2 = 21
Hope it helps

X = 4.2
base = 29.4 cm
altitude = 21 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
- area of parallelogram = b × h
- 7x × 5x = 617.4
- 35xsquare = 617.4
- X square = 617.4 ÷ 35
- X square = 17.64
- X = 4.2
- base ---- 7x --- 7 × 4.2 = 29.4 cm
- altitude --- 5x --- 5 × 4.2 = 21 cm
