Both base and height of the sail is 40 1/2 feet.
A sail is triangular in shape. Finding the area of a triangle is multiplying its base and height and dividing the product by 2.
A = 1/2 bh
Area = 40 1/2 or 40.50 sq. ft
Since base and height are equal.
40.50 x 2 = 81
bh = 81
bh = 81 ÷ 2
b = 40 1/2 ft
h = 40 1/2 ft

Answer:
y = 0.265x - 494.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let median age be represent by 'a' and time be represent by 't'
In 1980, median age is given 30
which means that
a₁ = 30
t₁ = 1980
In 2000, the median age is given 35.3
which means that.
a₂ = 35.3
t₂ = 2000
The slope 'm' of the linear equation can be found by:
m = (a₂ - a₁) /(t₂ - t₁)
m = (35.3 - 30)/(2000-1980)
m = 0.265
General form of linear equation is given by:
y = mx + c
y = 0.265x +c
Substitute point (1980,30) in the equation.
30 = 0.265(1980) + c
c = -494.7
Hence the the linear equation can be written as:
y = mx + c
y = 0.265x - 494.7

You said d = r t
Divide each side by ' t ' : d / t = r
