The flag pole is 20 feet tall with an 8 foot shadow.

The tree is X feet tall with a 12 foot shadow.

20/8 = X/12

Cross multiply:

20 * 12 / 8*X

240 = 8x

Divide both sides by 8:

x = 240/8

x = 30

The tree is 30 feet tall.

kogti [31]

Answer: 150 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of boys be x

Since there were 200 more girls than boys, the number of girls will be: = x + 200

Since the ratio of boys to girls was 3:7, this can be solved further below:

3/7 = x/x+200

Cross multiply

(7 × x) = 3(x + 200)

7x = 3x + 600

7x - 3x = 600

4x = 600

x = 600/4

x = 150

The number of boys enrolled is 150

Number of Girls will be:

= X + 200

= 150 + 200

= 350

Check: Number of boys / Number of girls

= 150/350

= 3/7

= 3:7
