To find the distance d, we can set up a proportion based on the given information.
The ratio of d to 150ft is the same as the ratio of 40ft to 50ft. Mathematically, that can be written as:
d / 150 = 40 / 50
To solve for d, we can cross-multiply and then solve for d:
d * 50 = 40 * 150
d * 50 = 6000
Now, divide both sides of the equation by 50 to isolate d:
d = 6000 / 50
d = 120
Therefore, the distance d is 120 feet.
