Answer:

5 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L be the length of the ladder. The relation between the angle and distance X is:

X = L * sin θ      the change of X will be:

dX/dt = L * cos θ    If we evaluate the expression when θ = π/3, we get the change of X:

dX/dt = 10 * cos(π/3)

dX/dt = 5 ft/s

Find the x- and y- intercept of the line. x + 4y =36
nadya68 [22]
Plug in 0 for x to find the y-intercept
0 + 4y = 36
4y = 36
y = 9
y-intercept (0, 9)

Plug in 0 for y to find the x-intercept
x + 4(0) = 36
x = 36
x-intercept (36, 0)
