The scale drawing below is being used to build a wooden table. The scale in this drawing is 1 cm = 2 feet. You change your mind and want the top edge of table to be 8 feet instead of 6 feet.
How many centimeters should the top edge of the table measure in your scale drawing now?
3 cm
5 cm
4 cm
6 cm
I need a answer

4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so the ratio for centimeters to feet is 1:2. Meaning if he wanted to make the top edge of the table  8 feet you would divide by 2 to get the centimeters.

1 cm = 2 feet

8 / 2 = 4

ad = ae + ed = y + 7

similar triangles therefor

ac/ab = ad/ae

6/4 = (y + 7) / y

cross multiply

6y = 4(y + 7)

6y = 4y + 28

2y = 28

y = 14
