<span>From the pythagorean theorem, we know that x^2 and y^2 = 15^2, where x and y, where x is the base moving from the wall and y is the distance of the ladder sliding down. This means that y = sqrt(225 - x^2). Plugging in x = 13 gives us y = 2sqrt(14). Differentiating both sides of the original equations gives us dy/dt = 13 x 4 / 2sqrt(14) = 52/2sqrt(14) = 26/sqrt(14) ft/s.</span>
85 x .15 = 12.75
85 + 12.75 = 97.75
Answer: Nolan took 97.75 Seconds
Answer:
y = - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
x = - 1 is the equation of a vertical line parallel to the y- axis
The equation of a line perpendicular to it will therefore be a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis with equation
y = c
where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through.
The line passes through (8, - 4 ) with y- coordinate - 4 , then
y = - 4 ← equation of perpendicular line
