Question

A triangle has a height of x meters and a base of 14 meters. Write and solve an inequality for the values of x that give an area of at most 112 m^2

Answer 1

area of a triangle is one half base times height

Answer 2

if the height is \(x\) and the base is \(14\) then the area is \[\frac{1}{2}14\times x\] or
\[7x\]

Answer 3

your job is therefore to solve
\[7x<112\] can you do it?

Answer 4

16?
