The formula for the area of a triangle is:
Area = (base x height) / 2
We know that the base of the sandwich is 4 inches and the area is 7 square inches. Plugging in those values, we get:
7 = (4 x height) / 2
Simplifying and solving for height, we get:
7 = 2 x height
height = 7 / 2
height = 3.5 inches
Therefore, the height of the sandwich is 3.5 inches. The answer is C.
