#5 Ruby is standing in her back yard and she decides to estimate the height of a tree. She stands so that the tip of her shadow coincides with the tip of the tree's shadow, as shown. Ruby is 66 in tall. The distance from the tree to Ruby is 95 feet and the distance between the tip of the shadows and Ruby is 7 feet. How tall is the tree to the nearest foot?

#6 Curtis is 6 feet 3 inches tall. He stands so the tip of his shadow and the tip of the tree’s shadow coincide. If his shadow is 6 feet long and the tree is 400 feet tall, how far is Curtis from the tree?
