Answer:

6 2/3 which is about 7 feet tall (answer is b)

Explanation:

10 foot-18 feet

x feet tall-shadow is 12 feet tall

So we should solve from the proportion. Remember to figure out the scale factor from multiplication and division. Not addition or subtraction.

18/12=1.5

Scale factor=1.5

10/1.5=6 2/3 which is about 7 feet tall
