Do you agree with the rules of the council on tall buildings and urban habitat regarding spires and antennae? Are the Petronas towers really taller than the Sears tower?

Yes, I agree

The Petronas Towers are taller than the Sears tower

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule regarding spires and antenna of the Council on tall buildings and Urban Habitat states that "an antenna is just functional - something with a technical purpose stuck on the top of a building after it is finished while spires are considered a continuation of the form of the building.

According to the Council, the Petronas Towers are taller than the Sears Tower because spires are included in a building's architecture while antennae are not.

The architectural height of the Petronas towers is 1,483ft

The architectural height of the Sears (now Willis) tower is 1,450ft

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
