A 7-foot tall stop sign creates a shadow that is 2 feet long. At the same time, a utility pole creates a shadow that is 11 feet long. How tall, in feet, is the utility pole?

Respuesta :

x ft tall: 11 ft shadow
7 ft tall: 2 ft shadow

11÷2= 5.5, 2×5.5=11 so 7×5.5= x
x= 38.5 ft tall

The utility pole is 38.5 ft tall.
