No it is not correct the answer is 14!
Answer:
C. 60 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
If triangles ABC and EDC are in a 1:1 relation, they are congruent, and
AC = EC
5x - 5 = 3x + 9
5x = 3x + 14
2x = 14
x = 7
AC = 5x + 5 = 5(7) - 5 = 35 - 5 = 30 ft
EC = 3x + 9 = 3(7) + 9 = 21 + 9 = 30 ft
Distance between top and bottom of bridge = AC + EC = 30 + 30 = 60 ft
