Answer:

22 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Change 15 feet into inches using the conversion

1 foot = 12 inches, thus

15 ft = 15 × 12 = 180 inches

scale factor = 180 ÷ 3.75 = 48

Thus the actual dimensions of the boat are 48 times the model.

actual length = 48 × 5.5 = 264 inches = 264 ÷ 12 = 22 feet

14 + 153x - 255 = - 476
-241 + 153x = -476
153x = -476 + 241
153x = - 235
