Answer: 10.08 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make the following conversions:

1.5 yards to feet:

[tex](1.5yd)(\frac{3ft}{1yd})=4.5ft[/tex]

7 inches to feet:

[tex](7in)(\frac{0.0833ft}{1in})=0.58ft[/tex]

Then, the height of Bonnie is:

[tex]5ft+0.58ft=5.58ft[/tex]

If the stilts increase a person's height by 1.5 yards or 4.5 feet, then you must add this height by Bonnie's height to calculate how tall she will be. Then:

[tex]=5.58ft+4.5ft=10.08ft[/tex]
