Jason accidentally locked himself out of his apartment, but remembered that he left a window open. The window is 8 feet above the ground. Since he works part-time at the local hardware store, he went to the store to borrow a ladder. There's a row of bushes along the edge of the apartment, so he will have to place the ladder 6 feet from the building. What length of ladder will Jason need to reach the window?

10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theorem (a^2 + b^2=c^2) to find the length of the hypotenuse, or the diagonal distance. a and b are the two sides a = 8 and b = 6.

8^2 + 6^2 = 100

= 10

The ladder needs to be 10 ft

the required function is .

step-by-step explanation:

from the given table it is noticed that the graph passing through (-3,7), (0,4), (3,1) and (8,-4).

it is a linear function because the value of y is decrease by one as the value of x increase by 1.

the slope of the function is

the slope of the function is -1 and the y-intercept is 4.

the slope intercept form is

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

therefore the required function is . the graph of this function is shown below.
