Afloor of a triangular room has an area of 32 1/2 sq. m. if the triangle's altitude is 7 1/2 m, write an equation to determine the length of the base in meters.

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 25 ft3/min, and its coarseness is such that it forms a pile in the shape of a cone whose base diameter and height are always equal. how fast is the height of the pile increasing when the pile is 14 ft high? (round your answer to two decimal places.) ft/min
