Question

Brock is six feet tall. He climbs a ladder to paint some trim on his house. For each rung that he climbs, Brock is 1.2 feet higher above the ground. Which equation could you use to calculate the distance, d, from the top of Brock’s head to the ground if r represents the number of ladder rungs he has climbed?

Answer 1

Since he is 6 feet tall, he starts with 6 feet above the ground and adding 1.2 each rung that he clibs so..y=mx+b  ..m=slope..  b=started with...y=1.2x+6
