Answer:

15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder is the hypotenuse of a right triangle, with the legs being 9 ft and 12 ft long (see the picture).

To solve for the length of the ladder, use the Pythagorean Theorem.

9^{2} +12^{2} =c^{2} \\c=\sqrt{9^{2} +12^{2}} \\c=\sqrt{81+144} \\c=\sqrt{225} \\c=15

A scatter plot containing the point (5,9) has the regression equation y = -x-3 (see photo)
Tatiana [17]
The residual is the difference between the plotted point and the line of best fit.

We first need to know the point at x=5 for the line of best fit.
y1 = -(5) - 3 = -8

Now we need to find the difference between the line of best fit and the plotted point.
residual = 9 -(-8) = 9 + 8 = 17 or C
