Hello!
I've attached the diagram.
For this problem, since you have a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to fine the length of the ladder (the hypotenuse of the triangle).
Pythagorean Theorem (where c is the hypotenuse):
a² + b² = c²
The triangle's leg lengths are 8 and 6; substitute into the theorem:
8² + 6² = c²
Simplify:
64 + 36 = c²
100 = c²
10 = c
Answer:
The length of the ladder is 10 m.

Answer:
A system of linear equations will have exactly one point of intersection, for example:
2x+y=5
-x+y=2
However, a system of linear equations with no solution will have no points of intersection, for example:
-4x+10y=6
2x-5y=3
Sorry about c. though I'm confused on how a pair of equations can have infinite points of intersection unless x or y equals all real numbers which could happen if x or y both equaled all real numbers maybe
And the point of interesection for the system of equations in the problem you attached as an image is (2,-1)
I attached a photo below, and one of how to graph it
