Jamie's design a sign for a store in the shape of a triangle. His design is 7.5 square feet in area, and the triangle has a height of 2.5 feet. What is the length of the base of his sign
We can use the formula for the area of a triangle:
A = 1/2 * base * height
where A is the area, base is the length of the base, and height is the height of the triangle.
Plugging in the given values, we get:
7.5 = 1/2 * base * 2.5
Multiplying both sides by 2 and dividing by 2.5, we get:
base = 6
Therefore, the length of the base of Jamie's sign is 6 feet.
