I might be wrong, but I think the answer is C) Change the length of side CB to 8 feet. 
Hopefully that helped! :)

Since the architect wants similar figures, it comes from the definition of similar triangles that the ratio of corresponding sides (all 3 sides) should be equal.

So,

\frac{7.5}{6}= \frac{5}{4}= \frac{10}{CB}.

Let's find CB.

\frac{7.5}{6} =\frac{5}{4}= \frac{10}{CB}\\ 1.25=1.25=\frac{10}{CB}\\ 1.25=\frac{10}{CB}\\ 1.25CB=10\\CB=\frac{10}{1.25}\\ CB=8

So, CB should be 8. Option C is correct.


ANSWER: Change the length of side CB to 8 feet

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Total cost is $100.41 ( $93.84 + $6.57)

Step-by-step explanation:

Thinking Point: The total cost is the cost of the items PLUS the tax. 93.84 ∙ 0.07 = 6.5688 (round to “cents”) = $6.57
