Complete question
A 29-meter ladder is sliding down a vertical wall so the distance between the top of the ladder and the ground is decreasing at 7 meters per minute. At a certain instant, the bottom of the ladder is 21 meters from the wall.
What is the rate of change of the distance between the bottom of the ladder and the wall at that instant(in meters per minute)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
Slant height 
Change in Vertical height 
Horizontal length 
Generally in finding the distance form the top to the bottom of the wall it is mathematically given by
Generally solving for the differential equation is mathematically represented as
I do not know my friend . Answer for this
First step is to simplify the equation into a form that we are familiar with graphing, in this case the simplest way i believe is to factorise the denominator. There are many methods of factorising quadratics but in this case my preferred method would be as follows:
x^2-3x-10, because it is a quadratic equation we know it can be factorised into the form (x+a)(x+b), we know that -10 is the product of a and b, therefore a and b can only be +/-1 and -/+10, or +/-5 and -/+2, the next step is to see which of these factors sum to equal -3, in this case it will be +2 and -5, therefore x^2-3x-10 can be factorised into (x+2)(x-5).
We have now simplified the function into f(x)= (x+2)/(x+2)(x-5), we can still simplify the function further though:
(x+2)/(x+2)(x-5), the numerator and denominator have a common factor therefore we can divide the numerator and the denominator by that factor, ((x+2)/(x+2))/((x+2)(x-5)/(x+2))= 1/(x-5)
The function is now in it's simplest form, so we will now graph it. As a side note you can't perfectly "graph" any function by hand so instead we will sketch the function, to sketch a function you need to know the general shape of the function and any x/y intercepts or asymptotes.
Functions of the form a/(bx+c) are reciprocal functions, you need to be able to remember what reciprocal function looks like to be a able to sketch them by hand, they look something like this https://www.desmos.com/calculator/df2wiewhsz. To work out the x-intercept we will assign f(x) as 0, 0=1/(x-5), multiply both sides by (x-5), (x-5)0=1, 0=1, 0 doesn't equal 1 therefore there is no x-intercept but instead there is an asymptote at y=0. To work out the y-intercept we will assign x as 0, f(x)=1/(x-5), f(x)=1/-5, therefore the only y-intercept is at coordinates (0.-0.2). All reciprocal functions have 2 asymptotes, we have already found one of them, by making f(x)=0, to find the other asymptote we will make 1/(x-5)=∞, 1/0=∞, therefore x-5 has to equal 0, therefore the second asymptote will be x=5.
after putting all of this together the graph should look something like this https://www.desmos.com/calculator/bibeeu7xtv
