We know that the original price is 160 and has increased to 248. To calculate the increase, divide. But first lets find the difference 248-160 =88
$\frac{88}{160} = 0.55 = 55\%$

I need help as fast as possible

Answer:

36°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Measurement of <3 = 2x+8

Measurement of <4 = 6x+12

Since both are supplementary,

Therefore,

<3 + <4. = 180° [linear pair]

=> 2x + 8 + 6x + 12 = 180

=> 2x + 6x + 8 + 12 = 180

=> 8x + 20 = 180

=> 8x = 180 - 20 = 160

$= > x = \frac{160}{8}$

=> x = 20

Now as we have got the value of x,

According to the question measurement of <4 is,

<4 = 6×4 + 12 = 24 + 12 = 36° (Ans)
