The number in parenthesis after f is the x coordinate. Basically, it says which y coordinate is tied with an x value. In choice a, it says that when x is 0 y is 3, etc.
So, you can look at the graph to see which answer choice has a point from the graph. Choice a says (0,3), and that does not match. Choice b says (5,-1) and that does match. So the answer is B.

Answer:
23.24 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the pythagorean theorem: a² + b² = c², where a and b are legs of the right triangle and c is the hypotenuse.
In this situation, the ladder is the hypotenuse of the triangle, and the distance from the base of the building is the long leg.
Plug in the ladder length as c and plug in the distance from the base of the building as a:
a² + b² = c²
(6²) + b² = (24)²
36 + b² = 576
b² = 540
b = 23.24
So, the ladder reaches approximately 23.24 feet up the wall
