The y intercept is 3 because that is where the point aligns to the axis
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer: the distance of the base of the house to the foot of the ladder is 6.84 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The scenario is shown in the attached photo.
Right angle triangle ABC is formed when the ladder leans against the wall of the house.
AC = the height of the ladder
AB = x feet = distance of the base of the house to the foot of the ladder
BC is the wall of the building.
To determine x, we will apply trigonometric ratio
Cos # = adjacent/hypotenuse
Where
# = 70 degrees
Hypotenuse = 20
Adjacent = x
Cos 70 = x/20
x = 20cos70
x = 20 × 0.3420
x = 6.84 feets
 
        
             
        
        
        
I believe the ratio in simplest form is 1.3 to 0.7.

No. The sample size is too small to be reliable. If there were many bags of 500 candies that consistently showed a larger-than-marketed amount of green candy, that will be better proof.
