Boyer · Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, h is the height of the bridge

For the bridge to be atmost 5 ft tall means the maximum height of bridge can be is 5 ft and that is attainable.

Given that 5 ft is the maximum then all other possibilities are less than 5ft.

∴ h ≤ 5ft. The correct option is b.
