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

Two friends Ana and Juan are buying books by joining the History Book
Travka [436]

Answer:

Ana  spent $17  per book on average.

Juan  spent $14.78  per book on average.

y = $15 + 17x--------- equation 1

y= $10 + 14.78 x------------- equation 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Ana has to pay a yearly fee of $15 to join.

She spends a total of $525 for 30 books.

The amount spent on books = Total amount - yearly fee

                                                 = $525- $15= $510

Price per book on the average = $510/30= $ 17

Ana  spent $17  per book on average.

Juan has to pay a yearly fee of $10 to join.

He spends a total of $350 for 23 books.

The amount spent on books = Total amount - yearly fee

                                                 = $350- $10= $340

Price per book on the average = $340/23= $ 14.78≅ $15

Juan  spent $14.78  per book on average.

The function can be established if y gives the total cost and x gives the number of books

y = $15 + 17x--------- equation 1

y= $10 + 14.78 x------------- equation 2

Juan has a better deal because the yearly fee is less also the price per book is less.

Select the equivalent expression . ( 8^ -5 2^ -2 )^ -4 =?
Vikki [24]

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

When there is division inside a set of parentheses, you can distribute the power to each term. When you take a power to another power, you multiply the powers.

-5 x -4 = 20

-2 x -4 = 8

So your answer is:

\frac{8^2^0}{2^8}
