Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Use similarity here. The ratio will look like this:
[tex]\frac{height of Jack}{length of Jacks shadow}=\frac{height of beanstalk}{length of stalks shadow}[/tex]
using the numbers provided:
[tex]\frac{15}{10}=\frac{x}{100}[/tex] and then cross multiply:
10x = 1500 so
x = 150
Therefore, the beanstalk is 1500 feet tall
