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

The sum of two numbers is 3. Five times the larger number plus four times the smaller number is 29. Find the numbers
gulaghasi [49]
Let's have two numbers x (larger) and y (smaller). from the info above...

x + y = 3
5x + 4y = 29

so that means y=3 - x. we can sub this in
5x + 4(3-x) = 29
5x + 12 - 4x = 29
x = 17
then y=3-x=3-17=-14

so it's 17 and -14

That'd be : 28.8 . I hope this helps. This is it step by step. 

60/x=100/48
<span>(60/x)*x=(100/48)*x       </span>
<span>60=2.08333333333*x      
</span>(2.08333333333) to get x
<span>60/2.08333333333=x </span>
<span>28.8=x </span>
<span>x=28.8</span>

My daughter is having a hard time trying to figure this problem.
Natalija [7]

Hey there! :-)

First, let's find the slope of the line.

We can do that by using this formula:

Slope=Rise/Run

Where

Rise=how many units we move up

Run=how many units we move left or right.

We move 5 units up and 8 units to the right.

Therefore, the slope is 5/8.

The y-intercept (where the line touches the graph) is -9/8.=

Therefore, the equation of the line is y=5/8x-9/8.

Hope this helps you daughter. Use the comment section to clarify any doubts.
