x+y=120_______1

x=4*y_________2

x=4y

substitute 4y for x in equation 1

`4y+y=120

5y=120

eliminate the coefficient of y

y=120/5

y=24

now,input 24 for y in equation 2

`x=4y

x=4*24

x=96

thus, the numbers are

96 and 24

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.
