If we are to write this equation in slope-intercept form, it will be in y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept. We need then to find the slope of the line using 2 points on the line and filling in the slope formula to find the slope. One of the points we can use is (0, 3) which is also the y intercept. The y-intercept is found where x = 0. Where x = 0, y = 3. So b = 3. Now for the slope we will use (0,3) and (4,4): 
. Using that m value and that b value we have the equation 
. There you go!
Let us try and solve it analytically. We have that the side=x+3 together with the short side=s and the diagonal=x+4 satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem. Then we have that 
. This yields 
which yields s^2=2x+7, hence a) is the correct answer.
which yields s^2=2x+7, hence a) is the correct answer.
Answer:
3.7feet
Step-by-step explanations
Using the sin rule
A/sin a = B/sin b
Let A = PQ = 8.5feet
B = QR = x feet
a = R = 90°
b = P = 26°
Substitute the values into the Sin rule
8.5/sin90 = x/sin26
8.5×sin 26 = x × sin 90
8.5×0.4383 = x× 1
3.7255 = x
Hence the length of QR to the nearest tenth 3.7feet
