A lighthouse has a shadow that is 36 feet long.

Zara is 4 feet tall, and she is standing next to the lighthouse.

Zara has a shadow that is 3 feet long.

Use this information to complete the statement about the lighthouse.

The height of the lighthouse is 48 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete but I presume the complete question is asking that the height of the lighthouse (in feet) should be calculated;

I'll answer this question based on that assumption;

Given

Shadow of lighthouse, S = 36ft

Height of Zara, h = 4ft

Shadow of Zara, s = 3ft.

We're to calculate the height of lighthouse, using the given data.

First, we need to calculate the magnifying ratio, M.

For Zara, M = s/h

M = 3/4

For the lighthouse,

M = S/H = 36/H

Since, M = M; We have

36/H = 3/4 Make H the subject of formula

H = 4 * 36/3

H = 4 * 12

H = 48 feet

Hence, the height of the lighthouse is 48 feet

correct answer is b. 27/8
