Answer:

5'10"

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions so we can set up a ratio

[tex]\frac{6.5}{9.75} =\frac{x}{8.75}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]6.5(8.75)=9.75x[/tex]

[tex]56.875=9.75x[/tex]

Divide both sides by 9.75

[tex]5.8333333=x[/tex]

Or [tex]5\frac{10}{12}[/tex] which is 5'10"

I hope this helps
