An 8 ft tall tent standing next to a man casts a 16 ft shadow. If the man is 6 ft tall, then how long is his shadow?

The man's shadow is 12 feet long.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are given that an 8 foot tall tent casts a 16 foot shadow, and we are asked the calculate the length of the shadow a 6 foot tall man casts.

To solve this problem, find the relationship between 8 and 16- 16 is twice as much as 8, as 8 x 2 = 16.

From this we have: "The shadow of an object is twice as long as the object."

We can use this to calculate the length of the shadow for a 6 foot tall man.  Since the height of the man is 6 feet, the length of his shadow would be 12 feet.

answer: all of the odd numbers were opened

the first person was the one that was opening all of the lockers. since one is odd, this causes all of the odd number lockers to be opened in the end.
