Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(8,2),(11,-13)
slope(m) = (-13 - 2) / (11 - 8) = -15/3 = -5
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -5
(8,2)...x = 8 and y = 2
now we sub and find b, the y int
2 = -5(8) + b
2 = -40 + b
2 + 40 = b
42 = b
so ur equation is : y = -5x + 42...now we need it in standard form
Ax + By = C
y = -5x 42
5x + y = 42 <====
Answer:
12.4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
A ladder placed against the wall forms a right angle triangle
Hypotenuse ² = opposite ² + adjacent ²
Hypotenuse = 13 feet
Opposite = 4 feet
Adjacent = x
Hypotenuse ² = opposite ² + adjacent ²
13² = 4² + x²
169 = 16 + x²
169 - 16 = x²
153 = x²
Find the square root of both sides
√153 = √x²
12.369316876852 = x
x = 12.4 feet
Adjacent = x = 12.4 feet
