Set it up as a ratio:
mans shadow over mans height (4/6 ) equals flag pole shadow over flag pole height (15/x)

set them to equal each other:

4/6 = 15/x

cross multiply: 4*x =4x, 15*6 = 90

so you have 4x = 90

now divide both sides by 5 to solve for x, which is the height of the flag pole:

x = 90 / 4 = 22.5 feet tall

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

14.200,14.204,14.210,14.240

Step-by-step explanation:

The given numbers are,14.204, 14.200, 14.240, 14.210

We can observe that:

14.200<14.204<14.210<14.240

Therefore the numbers in increasing order is 14.200,14.204,14.210,14.240
