To answer this question you will use ratios. The information given gives us a part to part ratio of 1 part vinegar for every 3 parts oil.
Because the total amount of furniture polish is 30 ounces, we will need to write one part vinegar to three parts oil as a part to part to whole ratio.
Use this information then and create an equivalent ratio with a total of 30 ounces. See below.
1 vinegar (x7.5) = 7.5 ounces
3 oil. (X7.5). = 22.5 ounces
4 total (x7.5). = 30 ounces
You will need 7.5 ounces of vinegar and a 22.5 ounces of oil.
Set up an equation and solve:
2x-14=52
2x=66
x=33

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>
