5ft + 12 ft = 17ft, 9inches + 3 inches = 12 inches, 12 inches in a foot so 17ft + 1 ft = 18ft

But again, @lugerm, the whole point here is to help the STUDENT to do the work and to obtain his or her own answers.  There's no honor in being an answer machine, nor any in requesting medals when you have not recognized this basic OpenStudy rule.
