A tree casts a shadow that is 24 feet long. Brad is 5 feet tall, and while standing near the tree he casts a shadow that is 4 feet long. How tall is the tree?

Respuesta :

I am assuming the tree is 25 ft or 26 ft tall.

Answer:

30 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

brad is 5 ft tall and has a shadow of 4 ft when standing by the near the trees shadow is 24 ft

so 24 ft / 4 ft =6 ft

so the tree is 6 times bigger than brad so you would multiple brads hight by 6

so that would be 5 times6 =30 ft

thus the tree is 30 ft tall
