Answer:

y = -1/2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

slope: (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

(-5 - -2) / (4 - -2)

(-5 + 2) / (4 + 2)

-3 / 6

- 1 / 2

y-intercept: y = mx + b

-5 = -1/2(4) + b

-5 = -2 + b

-3 = b

A 45 foot ladder is leaning against a building. If the bottom of the ladder is 27 feet from the base of the building, how tall i

taurus [48]

Answer:

The height of building to the nearest foot is h = 36 foot

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

Length of ladder leaning against a building, l = 45 foot

Bottom length between ladder and the building , b = 27

Now, we need to find the height of building to the nearest foot.

Let the height of building be h.

Using Pythagoras theorem,

$l^{2} = b^{2} +h^{2}$

Here, l = 45 , b = 27 and h =?

So,

$45^{2} = 27^{2} +h^{2}$

h² = 45² - 27²

h = √(45² - 27²)

h = 36

The height of building to the nearest foot is h = 36 foot
