Let's go through your questions step by step.

### Question 1
You need to calculate the total weight of the four suitcases:
- Weight of suitcase 1: 2412 lb
- Weight of suitcase 2: 1338 lb
- Weight of suitcase 3: 312 lb
- Weight of suitcase 4: 1734 lb

To find the total weight:
\[
\text{Total Weight} = 2412 + 1338 + 312 + 1734 = 5796 \text{ lb}
\]

It appears the total provided doesn’t match your choices. It’s not clear where this discrepancy is coming from; make sure to double-check the weights provided for correctness.

### Question 2
After the total is calculated (5796 lb), you want to reduce the weight by 12.2 lb:
\[
\text{New Total Weight} = 5796 - 12.2 = 5783.8 \text{ lb}
\]

Again, this number may not match your given choices.

### Question 3
Each suitcase is 14 16 inches tall; assuming "14 16" might be a typo and you're actually referring to 14 and 16/16 inches, which equals:
\[
14 + 1 = 15 \text{ inches}
\]

Total height when stacked:
\[
\text{Total Height} = 4 \times 15 = 60 \text{ inches}
\]

Since 60 inches exceeds the trunk height of 50 inches, the answer is:
- No, the height of all the suitcases is 60 inches.

### Question 4
To find the area of the bumper sticker given its dimensions (length = 4.56 inches, width = 2.3 inches):
\[
\text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} = 4.56 \times 2.3 = 10.488 \text{ in}^2
\]

Thus, the total area of the bumper sticker is:
- 10.488 in²

### Summary of Answers
1. **Total weight of luggage**: 5796 lb (not matching provided options)
2. **New total weight after reduction**: 5783.8 lb (not matching provided options)
3. **Stacking height**: No, the height of all the suitcases is 60 inches.
4. **Area of bumper sticker**: 10.488 in²

Please confirm the weights and measurements if necessary!
