<h3>Answer:</h3>
- y = -(x -3)² +3 . . . . (agrees with your answer)
- see the attachment for a graph
Factoring the leading -1 from the first two terms, we have ...
... y = -(x² -6x) -6
Adding 9 inside parentheses to complete the square, then adding the opposite amount outside parentheses, we have ...
... y = -(x² -6x +9) -6 +9
... y = -(x -3)² +3
Answer:
The slant of the ladder is 5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the attached figure to understand this situation
∵ a represents the distance from the edge to the top step
∵ The distance from the edge to the top step is 4 ft
∴ a = 4 ft
∵ b represents the distance to the house's edge from the bottom step
∵ The distance to the house's edge from the bottom step is 3 ft
∴ b = 3 ft
∵ c represents the slant of the ladder
∴ We need to find c
→ By using the Pythagoras Theorem
∵ c =
∴ c =
∵ = 5
∴ c = 5 ft
∴ The slant of the ladder is 5 ft
