The possible base and height of a second triangle are 12 and 7, respectively

<h3>How to determine the possible base and height of a second triangle?</h3>

An inverse variation is represented as:

Base * Height = k

Where k is the constant of variation.

In this case, k is the area

So, we have:

Base * Height  = Area

For the first triangle, we have:

14 * 6 = Area

Evaluate

Area = 84

Substitute Area = 84 in Base * Height  = Area

Base * Height  = 84

Express 84 as the product of two numbers

Base * Height  = 12 * 7

By comparison;

Base =12 and Height = 7

Hence, the possible base and height of a second triangle are 12 and 7, respectively

Nostrana [21]
We have 2 cars at $8.85 each. So we have 8.85 * 2 = $17.70

If we know he spent 23.65, we can do 23.65 - 17.70 = 5.95

So the paint must have cost $5.95.
