The area of a rectangle is represented with the formula below

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{area}=\text{length}\times\text{height} \\ \text{length}=14 \\ height=\text{?} \\ \text{area}=87.5 \\ \text{Therefore} \\ 87.5=14h \\ \text{divide both sides by 14} \\ h=\frac{87.5}{14} \\ h=6.25\text{ feet} \end{gathered}[/tex]
