Okay so. 

We have two basic equations 

Tower A+ B+720    A is 720ft taller than B. 
Tower A+B= 1982     Combined height is 1982ft

Replace A with B+720 in 2nd equation and solve for B 

B+720+B=1982   Combine like terms 
2B+720=1982     Subtract 720 from both sides
2B=1262              Divide both sides by 2
B=1262/2 
B= 631ft 

We know that A=B+720 so you simply need to do that addition to have the height of both towers.

2.5 What is the difference between relational understanding and instrumental​
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Instrumental understanding – having a mathematical rule and being able to apply and manipulate it. Relational understanding – having a mathematical rule, knowing how to use it AND knowing why it works.

Step-by-step explanation:

Instrumental understanding involves “memorising which problems a method works for and which not, and also learning a different method for each new class of problems” (Skemp 1987, p. 159), is a desire to know “some kind of rule for getting the answer” (p. 155) so that a student can “latch on it and ignore the rest”

True [87]

Answer:

6=72 cm; 7=15 cm; 8=30 in; 9)56.5 degrees; 10)40 in

Step-by-step explanation:

6) The height of the triangle is 12 cm. The base is around 10 cm. Triangles are 1/2(b)h, so:

1/2(10)=5

5*12=60 cm

72 is closest to this.

7) Volume is l*w*h, so:

2.5*1.5=3.75

3.75*4=15 cm

8) Again, the height is 5 and the base is 12. 1/2(b)h means:

1/2(12)=6

6*5=30 in

9) All triangles have 180 degrees. So first, add the degrees you know:

33.5+90=123.5

Now, subtract that from 180:

180-123.5=56.5

10) Trapezoids can be found by multiplying the height by the smaller base, so:

6*8=40 in

Hope this helped!
