First, all the heights have to be converted to similar units, say feet.
Therefore,
Building= 20 feet
Tree = 252*0.083333 = 21 feet
Flagpole = 6*3 = 18 feet
The tallest of the three is the tree and thus should cast the longest shadow. However, it should be noted that at exactly noon when the sun is overhead, all the three will have equal length of shadow (that is, 0 feet long).

1/8 is the answer to the problem
Answer:
y = 6 or 8
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Subtract the constant:
y^2 -14y = -48
2. Add the square of half the y-coefficient:
y^2 -14y +49 = -48 +49
Write as a square, if you like:
(y -7)^2 = 1
3. Take the square root:
y -7 = ±√1 = ±1
4. Add the opposite of the constant on the left:
y = 7 ±1 = 6 or 8
The solution is y = 6 or y = 8.
