To find the height of the sandwich, we can use the formula for the area of a triangle:
Area = (base * height) / 2.
Plugging in the given values, we have:
7 = (4 * height) / 2.
Multiplying both sides by 2, we get:
14 = 4 * height.
Dividing both sides by 4, we get:
height = 14 / 4 = 3.5 inches.
Therefore, the height of the sandwich is 3.5 inches.
