Answer:

8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a triangle, we use the formula

A = 1/2 bh where b is the length of the base and h is the height

A = 24 and b = 6

24 = 1/2 (6) * h

24 =3h

Divide each side by 3

24/3 = 3h/3

8 =h

The height is 8 inches

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The height of the triangle is equal to 8 inches.

height=8in

<h2>Why?</h2>

To find the height of the triangle, we need to use the formula to calculate the area of a triangle, it's given by the following expression:

Area=\frac{base*height}{2}

So, since we already know the area and the base, we need to isolate the height from the formula, so, isolating we have:

Area=\frac{base*height}{2}\\\\\frac{Area*2}{base}=height

We know that:

Area=24in^{2} \\base=6in

Now, substituting we have:

height=\frac{Area*2}{base}

height=\frac{24in^{2} *2}{6in}=8in

Hence, we have that the height of the triangle is equal to 8 inches.

height=8in

Have a nice day!

Nimfa-mama [501]

It says Sandeep has twice as much as Sonia. Thus, let Sandeep's amount be 2x and Sonia's amount be x.

Now, together they have 150.

Thus, the equation;

x+2x=150

Now let's solve the equation;

3x=150

x=150/3

x=50

Thus, Sonia has 50
