Answer:
6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the right triangle formed by the wall, ladder and ground.
Let the distance the ladder is from the wall be d , then
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
The square on the hypotenuse ( ladder) is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides ( wall and d ), then
d² + 8² = 10²
d² + 64 = 100 ( subtract 64 from both sides )
d² = 36 ( take the square root of both sides )
d =
= 6
That is the ladder is 6 feet away from the wall
x = number of hours after 9 am (eg: x = 1 means 1 hr after 9 am, so 10 am)
f(x) = population count x hours after 9 am
f(1) = population count at 10 am (1 hour later)
f(2) = population count at 11 am (2 hrs after 9 am)
f(2) - f(1) represents the difference in population counts from 10 am to 11 am, or put another way, how much the population increased during that time interval.

Answer:
Every 12 minutes, 24 more pizzas were set out on the buffet.
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The equation of the line in slope intercept form is given by

where
m is the slope b is the y-intercept
we have

so
The slope or unit rate is equal to

That means
Every 6 minutes, 12 more pizzas were set out on the buffet.
or
Every 12 minutes, 24 more pizzas were set out on the buffet.
