51 ft is the answer
Explanation
The hight of the man divided by the hight of school ( which is unknown )
Equal
The length of the shadow of the man divided by the shadow of the school
Cross multiplication and find the value of unknown x which is 51... and ya
8x + 7y = 39
4x - 14y = -68
(multiply each term in second equation by -2)
8x + 7y = 39
-8x + 28y = 136
(add both equations)
35y = 175
(divide both sides by 35)
y = 5
(substitute value of y in one of the equations)
8x + 7(5) = 39
8x + 35 = 39
8x = 4
x = 1/2
(x, y) = (1/2, 5)
