Answer:</h2>
<em><u>The truck cannot pass safely under the bridge. The truck is 13 inches taller than the maximum height.</u></em>
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
In the question,
The maximum height of the vehicle which is capable of passing under the bridge is 12 feet and 5 inches.
So,
Now we know that,
1 feet = 12 inches
So,
12 feet = 12 x 12 = 144 inches
So,
Total height of the vehicle which is permissible to pass under the bridge is,
12 feet 5 inches = 144 + 5 = 149 inches
Also,
Height of the truck = 162 inches
Therefore, we can see that the permissible height is smaller than the height of the vehicle.
Height of vehicle which is more than permissible height is by,
162 - 149 = 13 inches
<em><u>Therefore, the truck cannot pass safely under the bridge. The truck is 13 inches taller than the maximum height.</u></em>
Answer:
Yes, the shapes are similar. Note, the angles are equivalent and the sides are scales of each other satisfying the requirements for similarly.
Step-by-step explanation:
For a shape to be similar there are two conditions that must be met. (1) Must have equivalent angles (2) Sides must be related by a scalar.
In the two triangles presented, the first condition is met since each triangle has three angles, 90-53-37.
To test if the sides are scalar, each side must be related to a corresponding side of the other triangle with the same scalar.
9/6 = 3/2
12/8 = 3/2
15/10 = 3/2
Alternatively:
6/9 = 2/3
8/12 = 2/3
10/15 = 2/3
Since the relationship of the sides is the scalar 3/2 (Alternatively 2/3), then we can say the triangles meet the second condition.
Given that both conditions are satisfied, then we can say these triangles are similar.
Note, this is a "special case" right triangle commonly referred to as a 3-4-5 right triangle.

Start at -4 on the number line. Move 6 units to the left to get to -10
This shows -4 - 6 = -10

Answer:
- The submarine's position means the distance it traveled is greater than 24 feet
- A possible position of the submarine is -27 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance is generally a positive number. (Displacement, or position may be negative, as in this case.) If the sub started at 0 feet and went lower than -24 feet, it traveled a distance of more than 24 feet (greater than 24 ft).
Of the numbers listed, the only one lower than -24 is -27.
