Dont really understand can someone break it down please

The height of a triangle is increasing at a rate of 2.5 centimeters/minute while the area of the triangle is increasing at a rate of 5 square centimeters per minute. At what rate is the base of the triangle changing when the height is 7.5 centimeters and the area is 90 square centimeters?

Remember that you're using the formula for the area of a triangle: Area = 1/2b⋅h
