    Answer: the height of the tree would be 10 feet.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    A tree and its shadow is proportional to Harry and his shadow. This means that

    Height of the tree/height of the tree's shadow = Harry's height/height of his shadow

    If Harry is 6 feet tall, his shadow is 9 feet and the tree's shadow is 15 feet long, then the height of the tree would be

    6/9 = height of tree/15

    height of tree = (6 * 15) / 9 = 10 feet.
