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

When a 40% of a number is added to the number and the result is 126 , what is the number ?
kozerog [31]

it would be 315. The simplest way to doing this would be by, first , doubling the number to make 252 which would add up to be 80%, and then divide 126 by 2 to get 63 which would be 20% ad by adding them all together you would get 315, which is equal to 100%.

Find the value of x.<br> A) 71 <br> B) 72 <br> C) 73 <br> D) 75
natita [175]
146° + (-39 +x)° = 180°

Subtract 146° on both sides.

(-39 +x)° = 180° - 146°

(-39 +x)° = 34°

(x - 39)° = 34°

Add 39° on both sides

x = 34° + 39°

x = 73°

Your final answer is C) 73.
