The longer an object, the longer the shadow they cast at a given time of the day and vice versa. This is called direct proportionality. At the same time,

If 15 foot flagpole ---- casts 11 foot shandow
    28 foot tree -------- casts ?? foot shadow

The proportion would therefore be:

Length of shadow cast by tree = (28/15)*11 = 20.533 foot.

Answer: 180 tickets for $40

Step-by-step explanation:

    To answer this question, we need to find a pattern;

15 / 3 = 5

60 / 15 = 4

-> If you divide, we find a pattern of the quotient with 5... 4... so we can assume the next is 3

    Using this pattern;

60 * 3 = 180 tickets for $40

Answer:

The circumference is approximately 125.66.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for circumference is 2 x 3.14(r). Radius (or r) in this case is equal to 20 since the diameter is two times the length of the radius. 40/2 = 20.

2 x 3.14(20) ≈ 125.66
