Answer:

12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that you have a right triangle here, with hypotenuse 13 ft, and base 5 ft.  Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we find the height of the upper tip of the ladder as follows:

(13 ft)^2 = y^2 + (5 ft)^2.  Then y^2 = 144 ft^2, and y =height= 12 ft

You would simply multiply 5 by the amount of questions. In this case, we do not know the amount, so we can use the variable n.
