Answer:

7.4 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance from bottom of ladder to side of the house = d

θ = 62 ; height, h = 14

Using trigonometry :

Tan θ = opposite / Adjacent

Opposite = height ; adjacent = d

Tan 62° = 14 / d

1.8807264 * h = 14

d = 14 / 1.8807264

d = 7.44

So you have to find the relationship between the pumpkin diameter (y) and the number of weeks passed (x) in a table, lets do it taking into account that the equation modeling such behaviour is:
y = 2x + 6, where x is the number of weeks and plus original 6 cm
x                                y                            
week                         diameter
0                                6
1                                8
3                                12
5                                16
10                               26
substitute the x and y values in the equation to see how they fit into it
