Question

at the same time a 15 foot pole casts a 7.5 foot shadow a nearby tree casts an 11 foot shadow how tall is the tree​

Answer 1

answer: 22

15/7.5 = x/11

cross multiply

7.5x = 165

divide by 7.5 on both sides to get the x alone

7.5x/7.5 = 165/7.5

x = 22

the tree is 22 feet

sorry if it’s wrong
