Answer:

30 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Found the unit rate, so a 6 feet person casts a 2 foot shadow  

Divided both numbers by 2  

Therefore getting a 3 foot person casts a 1 foot shadow

If the flagpole casts a ten foot shadow I multiplied 10×1 and 30 ×1. Meaning that the 30 foot flagpole casts a 10 foot shadow

hope it helps:)
