Q. Camilla is moving next week, and she is comparing rental vehicles that will fit all her furniture. She is deciding between a cargo van that is 77 feet long and a box truck that is 1010 feet long. Camilla wants as much space as possible, so she decides to rent the box truck since it is bb feet longer than the cargo van.\newlineWhich diagram models the story?\newlineWhich equation models the story?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) b10=7b - 10 = 7\newline(B) 7+b=107 + b = 10
  1. Identify Vehicle Lengths: Camilla is comparing the lengths of two vehicles: a cargo van and a box truck. The cargo van is 77 feet long, and the box truck is 1010 feet long. We need to find how much longer the box truck is compared to the cargo van.
  2. Find Length Difference: To find the difference in length between the box truck and the cargo van, subtract the length of the cargo van from the length of the box truck: 10 feet7 feet10 \text{ feet} - 7 \text{ feet}.
  3. Calculate Difference: Performing the subtraction gives us: 107=310 - 7 = 3 feet. So, the box truck is 33 feet longer than the cargo van.
