The area of a triangle is 150 in2. If the height is 20 inches, find the
length of the base.

The base of the triangle is 15 inches

Formula for area of a triangle: A = bh/2

Subsitute values into the formula:

150 = b(20)/2

Now solve for b

150 = b20/2

x 2           x2

300 = b20

300/20 = b20/20

15 = b

The base of the triangle is 15 inches

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
