The formula for solving current given with resistance and power source or voltage is shown below:
I = V/R  

When two 5 ohms resistors are in series, we have:
I = 9 volts / (5+5 ohms)
I = 0.9 amperes

When it is being added with another 7.5 resistors, we have:
I = 9 volts / (5+5+7.5 ohms)
I = 0.529 ampere

The answer to the question is the letter "D. decrease; 0.51 amps".
