Hey! I'll provide you the answers!
First you want to simplify the equation using cross-multiplication.
Finally, you would want to divide both sides by 15.
n = 161
It form a right triangle
legnth of ladder is hypotonuse
bottom of ladder from wall distance is one leg
distance up wall is other leg
a^2+b^2=c^2
c=hypotonuse and a and b are legs
4^2+b^2=20^2
16+b^2=400
minus 16 both sides
b^2=384
sqrt both sides
b=8√6 ft
aprox
b=19.59ft from ground
Y - 3 = 8/3(x + 2)...the slope here is 8/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -3/8
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = -3/8
(-2,3)....x1 = -2 and y1 = 3
now we sub
y - 3 = - 3/8(x - (-2)...not done yet
y - 3 = -3/8(x + 2) <===
