Answer:

A man walking away from a lamppost with a light source h=8 m above the ground. The man is m= 2 m tall. How long is the man’s shadow when he is d=15 m from the lamppost?

Step-by-step explanation:

2/x=6/(10+x) cross multiply.

6x=2(10+x)

6x=20+2x

6x-2x=20

4x=20

x=20/4

x=5 m. is the length of the man's shadow.
