7-foot
EXPLANAT
Given:
14 foot tree
8foot shadow
4foot shadow
Let h be the height of a tee that casts a 4 foot long shadow.
Using proportion;
14 foot = 8 ft shadow
h = 4 ft shadow
Cross - multiply
8h = 56
Divide both-side by 8
h = 7 foot.
Hence, the tree is 7-foot.
For one set the two equations equal to eachother and solve from there. 2 is 45
For three set the two equations equal. Same for four
