Answer:

15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion where x is the actual length of the car:

[tex]\frac{3\frac{3}{4} }{\frac{1}{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex]

Cross multiply and solve for x:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]x = 7[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

x = 15

So, the actual length of the car is 15 feet
