Height of the truck =m 162 inches Height of the bridge under which vehicles pass = 12 feet 5 inches = (12 * 12) + 5 inches = 144 + 5 inches = 149 inches We arrived at the above deduction from the fact that 1 feet is equal to 12 inches. Now Difference in height of the truck and the bridge is = 162 - 149 inches = 13 inches So the truck is 13 inches taller than the maximum height of the bridge. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option or option "B". I hope it helps you

How many line segments would you use to draw 14 pentagons
AfilCa [17]
The ratio for this problem is 1:5.

If you are drawing 14 pentagons, you would do 14 x 5.

14 (pentagons) x 5 (line segments) = 70 line segments in total.

A parking lot covers 32,420 square feet. What is its area to the nearest thousand feet? Explain how you round the number.
REY [17]
The thousands place (1000) is the fourth number to the left of the decimal, so round that one either up or down based on the number just one spot closer to the decimal, in this case, the hundreds place (100).

so we have 32,420

we can ignore the numbers that are going to become zeros as a result of the rounding . .

32,400

let's round 32,XXX either up or down based on the value in the hundreds place. if that value is 5 or greater, than we round up. if it is less than 5, than we round down.

4 is in the hundreds place, so we round down

32,000 is the answer

" Pentagon ABCDE and pentagon A’B’C’D’E’ are shown on the coordinate plane below.
vampirchik [111]
<span>The answer: b. translated according to the rule (x, y) → (x + 8, y + 2) and reflected across the x-axis

If you make the drawing of the situation you realize the you need a reflection through the x-axis, but first you need to translate the polygon several units to the left and upward.

You can see that all the x-coordinates have increased 8 units, so the solution has to include x + 8.

Also, you see that you have to move the polygon 2 units upward before doing the reflection so the solution has to include y + 2.

So, the answer is (x,y) ---> (x + 8, y + 2) and then reflection across the x-axis.

Can someone answer this for me

The linear equation in standard form is:

6x - 7y = -11

Which is the last option.

<h3>How to get the equation of the line?</h3>

The line in slope-intercept form is written as:

y = a*x + b

We can see that the line passes through the points (-3, -1) and (1/2, 2), then the slope is:

a = \frac{2 - (-1)}{1/2 - (-3)}  = \frac{3}{3.5}  = \frac{6}{7}

Then we can write:

y = (6/7)*x + b

To find the value of b, we use the first point. It means that when x = -3, the value of y is -1, then we get:

-1 = (6/7)*-3 + b

-1 + 18/7 = b

-7/7 + 18/7 = b

11/7 = b

Then the equation is:

y = (6/7)*x + 11/7

If we multiply both sides by 7 we get:

7y = 6x + 11

Now we move the term with "x" to the left:

7y - 6x = 11

That is the line in standard form.

If we multiply both sides by -1, we get the last option:

6x - 7y = -11
