Considering the given linear function, the inequality graphed is:
B. .
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
The line intersects the y-axis at 2 units, hence the y-intercept is b = 2. The function also passes through (1,4), hence the slope is:
m = (4 - 2)/(2 - 1) = 2.
Thus the equation of the line is:
y = 2x + 2.
The left-side of the line is the values above the line, hence the inequality is:
B. .

<h3>Answer: 14 feet</h3>
=====================================================
Explanation:
Check out the diagrams below.
We'll start with the left diagram (marked "before") which is a right triangle with the horizontal leg of 25 feet and hypotenuse 65 feet.
Use the pythagorean theorem to find the vertical side x.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
25^2 + x^2 = 65^2
625 + x^2 = 4225
x^2 = 4225 - 625
x^2 = 3600
x = sqrt(3600)
x = 60
The top of the ladder is 60 feet high when placed against the wall in this configuration.
------------------
If the upper end is moved down 8 feet, then x-8 = 60-8 = 52 feet is the new height of the ladder. Refer to the "after" in the diagram below.
Like earlier, we'll use the pythagorean theorem to find the missing side.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
y^2 + 52^2 = 65^2
y^2 + 2704 = 4225
y^2 = 4225 - 2704
y^2 = 1521
y = sqrt(1521)
y = 39
The horizontal distance from the ladder base to the wall is now 39 feet.
Earlier it was 25 feet, so it has increased by 39-25 = 14 feet.
