Answer:
Deficit
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the correct answer for me
<span>First step is find total height of all the figures expressed in feet:
Liem: 6 ft 2 inch = 6,167 ft
Eli: 5 ft 9 inch = 5,75 ft
Faith 6 ft
Simon: 5 ft 4 inch = 5,34 ft
To calculate the total height we need to know that 12 inches are 1 foot
6’2”+5’9”+6+5’4”= 22 ft 15 inch = 23 ft 3 inch
Another way is by adding decimal figurel:
6,167 + 5,75 + 6 + 5,34 = 23,25 feet
Then we know that 3 feet are 1 yard, so then total height is:
23,25 / 3 = 7,75 yards</span>
There are two ways you could go about solving this.
You could divide the length of the base (6mm) by 2 and use that to find the area or you could find the area of the whole triangle using 6mm and divide that by 2.
I will use the first method I described:
base = 6/2
base = 3 mm
height = 5.2 mm
area = bh/2
area = (3 * 5.2)/2
area = 7.8 square mm
(don't forget your units)
Using the other method would look like this:
area = bh/2
b = 6
h = 5.2
area = (6 * 5.2)/2
area = 15.6 square mm
area/2 = 7.8 square mm
As you can see either method yields the same result.
Hope this helped.
Cheers and good luck,
Brian
