Answer:

-25ft/second

Step-by-step explanation:

The explaination above is correct, except you forgot that the base is decreasing.  So db/dt should be -1 not 1.  Therefore, it is -35 + 10, equaling -25.

We are given with the rate of change of the base, db/dt equal to 1 ft/ sec and the rate of change of the height of the triangle, dh/dt equal to 2 ft/sec. b is 10 ft and h is 70 ft. Area of triangle is equal to A= 0.5 bh The rate of change of the area is equal to dA/dt = 0.5 b dh/dt + 0.5 h db/dt. Substituting, dA= 0.5*10*2 + 0.5*70 * 1 equal to 45 ft2 / sec.
