Solution

The answer is B: Before.

Explanation:

  • The prefix "ante-" is derived from Latin and means "before" or "in front of." In the context of the sentence, an "anteroom" is a room that is situated before or in front of another room, typically used as a waiting area before entering a main room or area.
  • "Against" is incorrect because it does not relate to the meaning of "ante-." The prefix for "against" is typically "anti-."
  • "Beyond" is incorrect because it suggests something further or more distant, which is not the meaning of "ante-."
  • "After" is incorrect because it is the opposite of "before," and the prefix for "after" is typically "post-."

Select the correct answer. A civil engineer is designing a public parking lot for the new town hall. The number of cars in each row should be six less than the number of rows in the lot. The mayor has requested that the new lot should hold twice as many cars as the current parking lot, which has space for 56 cars. Determine which equation the civil engineer can use to find the number of rows, x, he should include in the new parking lot. A. x^2 - 6x = 112 B. 2x^2 - 12x = 112 C. x^2 - 6 = 112 D. 6x^2 - 56 = 112
