Question

describe the effect of change on the area of the rectangle if the base and height are both multiplied by 1/2

Answer 1

Answer:

The area would decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

So if the base was 4ft and the height was 2ft then the area would be 8ft^2. because area is base times height. so if 4 times 1/2 is 2 and 2 time 1/2 is 1 so the area would be 2ft^2
