Answer:
4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the height of the tower when finished.
We have been given that Priya takes a break when the tower is 2 and 1/2 feet tall, which is 5/8 of the height of the tower she wants to build.
This means that 5/8 of x equals 2 and 1/2. Let us represent this information in an equation.
5/8*x=2 and 1/2
Let us convert our given mixed fraction into an improper fraction.
5/8*x=5/2
Let us multiply both sides of our equation by 8/5.
8/5*5/8*x=5/2*8/5
x=8/2
x=4
Consider for each point how far it is above (or below) the horizontal line y=2. Then plot its image the same distance below (or above) that line.
For 300 more square feet the rent is $150 more.
Rent per additional square foot is 150/300 or 0.50.
For an additional 400 square feet the rent is an additional 400(0.50) or $200.
The rent for 1500 feet squared office is $1325.
