So the way you would find it is a ratio. 

1. \frac{6}{2.5}     \frac{x}{17}
2. =(6)(17)/(2.5)
3. =102/2.5
4. =40.8

So the building would be 40.8 feet tall.

What is the solution to 4x + 2 = 6(-2x - 5) ?
exis [7]

Answer:

x= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 2 = 6(-2x - 5)

Distribute

4x+2 = -12x-30

Add 12x to each side

4x+2+12x = -12x-30+12x

16x+2 = -30

Subtract 2 from each side

16x+2-2=-30-2

16x = -32

Divide by 16

16x/16x = -32/16

x = -2
