Question

12. A bridge is 1,595 feet long. Each cable holding up the
bridge is 1,983 feet longer than the bridge itself. How
long is each cable?

Answer 1

Answer:

3,578

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the two values together.  If the bridge is 1,595 feet long, and if each cable holding that is 1,983 feet longer than the length of the bridge then adding them together is the way to go.

1,595+1,983=3,578
