To get the AREA we multiply the x axis by the y axis
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "(1) becomes ft/ sec^2 *sec = ft / sec,,,, which is velocity ( acceleration * time = velocity)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "(2) $ / lb * lb = $,,, which is cost (unit cost * units = cost)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "(3) cal / oz * oz = cal,,, which is total cal ( cal per oz * oz = total cal)
\n" ); document.write( ".
