Finding Distance
•In the water, the bottom of a boat is 2.1 feet below the surface, and the top of the boat is 8.7 feet above it. Towed on a trailer, the bottom of the boat is 1.3 feet above the ground. Can the boat and the trailer pass under the bridge?
•Find the height of the boat.
•8.7- (-2.1) = 8.7 + 2.1 = 10.8
•Find the height of the boat and the trailer.
•10.8 + 1.3 = 12.1
•12.1 is greater than 11 ft 8 in, so the trailer and the boat cannot pass.
