Answer:

  114 inches, or 9 ft 6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The chair's shadow is 72/48 = 1.5 times as long as the lifeguard's shadow. Since shadow length is presumed proportional to height, we expect the lifeguard chair to be 1.5 times as tall as the lifeguard.

  1.5(76 in) = 114 in = 9 ft 6 in . . . height of lifeguard chair

It goes by 8!

If u see, 4 + 8= 12 +(another) 8 = 20! It skips 8 every time!

If u were to continue it, 20 + 8 = 28 and so on!
The difference is the sum of the number totalled.
