The maximum height of a vehicle that can safely pass under a bridge is 12 feet 5 inches. A truck measures 162
inches in height. Which best explains whether or not the truck can pass safely under the bridge?
The truck can pass safely under the bridge. The truck is 13 inches shorter than the maximum height.
The truck cannot pass safely under the bridge. The truck is 13 inches taller than the maximum height.
The truck can pass safely under the bridge. The truck is 12 inches shorter than the maximum height.
The truck cannot pass safely under the bridge. The truck is 12 inches taller than the maximum height

Converting Units and Comparing Quantities:

The truck cannot pass safely under the bridge. The truck is 13 inches taller than the maximum height.

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum height of vehicle to pass bridge, (A) = 12 feet 5 inches = (12 x 12) + 5 = 144 + 5 = 149 inches

A Truck's height (B) = 162 inches

The difference between height of Truck and maximum height of allowed vehicle =  (A - B) = 13 inches (162 - 149)

Therefore, the truck is higher than the bridge by 13 inches, and cannot pass the bridge.

For the truck to pass the bridge, it must be below 149 inches.
