Maple model shadow

In the camp, the children made a mock-up of the campsite. In its center was a maple, which had a height of 28 cm on the model. Calculate the height of the maple in the campsite if, in the morning, it casts a shadow 14 m long and its model has a shadow 49 cm long.

Final Answer:

X =  8 m

Step-by-step explanation:

x=28 cm y=49 cm Y=14 m  r=X:Y = x:y X=Y yx=14 4928=4914 28=49392=8 m
