Answer :
Final answer:
The total weight of you and your friend, in addition to those already on the bridge, exceeds the bridge's weight limit of 1000 pounds. Therefore, it won't be safe for you both to walk on the bridge simultaneously.
Explanation:
In this question, we need to understand basic addition and the concept of weight limits. The total weight the bridge can hold is 1000 pounds. The total weight of people currently on the bridge is 675 pounds. If you (156 pounds) and your friend (182 pounds) both plan to walk on the bridge at the same time, then we need to calculate the total weight that will be on the bridge, including you two.
So, we add 675 pounds + 156 pounds + 182 pounds. This equals to 1013 pounds which is greater than the weight limit of the bridge (1000 pounds). Therefore, based on this calculation, it's not safe for both you and your friend to walk on the bridge at the same time.

No, because if you add both of you and your friend's weight, it becomes 338. if you add that to 675, it becomes 1,013 lbs., which is over 1,000 lbs.
