Answer:   y = 6 mi.  .
______________________________________________
Explanation:
______________________________________________
Area of a triangle = (½) * (base) * (height) ;

or,  A = (½) * b * h ;  or,  A = b*h / 2 ;
_____________________________________
Given:  A = 24.3 mi ² ;
           b = 8.1 mi 
___________________
Find the height, "h" ;  (in units of "miles", or , "mi" ).
__________________________
   Plug in the known values into the formula:

24.3 mi ² = (½) * (8.1 mi) *(h) ;
_____________________________
Solve for "h" (height) ;
_____________________________
(½) * (8.1 mi) = 4.05 mi  ;
______________________________
Rewrite: 
____________________________
24.3 mi² = (4.05 mi) *(h) ;  Solve for "h" ;
_________________________________________
 Divide each side of the equation by "(4.05 mi)" ; to isolate "h" on one side of the equation ; and to solve for "h" ; 
__________________________________________
   24.3 mi²  / 4.05 mi  = (4.05 mi) *(h)  / 4.05 mi ;
                                 
              →  6 mi  = h ;  ↔  h = 6 mi. 

              →      h = y = 6 mi.

I'd suggest you begin with the formula for the area of a triangle of base b and height h.  It is as follows:

         bh
A = --------
          2

Here b is the length of the base and h is the height of the triangle.
In this problem the area and the base are given; they are 24.3 square miles and 8.1 miles respectively. We are to determine the height, y.

                                                                                          2A  
Solve the above equation for h, the height:  2A=bh, or  -------
                                                                                            b

Substitute (24.3 square miles) for A and 8.1 miles for b.

Calculate y (or, equivalently, calculate h).  Both represent the height of the given triangle.

Mortgage collateral is the asset that secures the mortgage loan. Traditionally, the mortgage collateral is the asset the loan finances. If you fail to make payments to your lender on the loan, your lender has the option to claim ownership of the property due to its security interest.
