area for triangle = 1/2 x b x h

area = 120

height = 15

120 = 1/2 * b * 15

divide both side by 1/2

240 = b *15

divide both sides by 15

b = 240/15 = 16

 base is 16 inches

check: 1/2* 16 *15 = 120 sq. in.

The formula for the area of a triangle is Area=.5(b)(h)

So fill in what you know:

120=.5b*15

Then solve for b.

120=7.5b
b=16

dangina [55]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, smith receives 60% of the vote this means murphy must receive 40% of the vote. Therefore 15 = 40% of the total vote.

Thus total vote = 37.5, which is kind of absurd. As total vote count must be an integer. Moreover, the report must be consistent with the result, which does not seem in this case.

A car dealership sells SUVs and passenger cars . For a recent year, 80 more SUVs were sold than passenger cars. If a total of 51
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

295 SUVs were sold, and 215 passenger vehicles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s and p represent the number of SUVs and p the number of passenger cars.  

Then s = p + 80 and s + p = 510.

Substitute p + 80 for s in the second equation, obtaining:

p + 80 + p = 510, or:

2p = 430

Dividing both sides by 2 isolates p:  p = 215.

Since s = p + 80, we add 80 to 215 here, obtaining s = 295.

295 SUVs were sold, and 215 passenger vehicles.
