I think you just need to draw a number line starting at one OR zero that goes up and explain why
The answer is true. It does increase
Solution:
<u>Note that:</u>
- Area of triangle = 6 3/8 yd²
- Height of triangle = 2 1/2
- Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x altitude
<u>Use the formula to find the base of the triangle.</u>
- 1/2 x base x altitude = 6 3/8 yd²
- => 1/2 x base x 2 1/2 = 6 3/8 yd²
- => 1/2 x base x 5/2 = 6 3/8 yd²
- => 5/4 x base = 6 3/8 yd²
- => base = 6 3/8 ÷ 5/4 yd
- => base = 51/8 x 4/5 yd
- => base = 51/2 x 1/5 yd
- => base = 51/10 yd
The length of the base is 51/10 yards.
-7 is the correct result of that equation
