Answer:

26 ft. =  the length of the flagpole's shadow to the nearest foot

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f = the length of the flagpole's shadow

girl's height/flagpole's height = girl's shadow length/flagpole's shadow length

4/35 = 3/f

4f = 105

f = 26.25 ft. ≅ 26 ft =  the length of the flagpole's shadow to the nearest foot.
