A 20 foot ladder liens against a building and must just reach a window that is 8 feet of the level ground the latter will be unstable if the base is more than 15 feet from the bottom of the building will the ladder be unstable

the ladder will be unstable because it is 18.33ft from the bottom of the building

1 number

if we use a graphing calculator, there is only one such number that satisfies the conclusion of the mean value theorem, that is, a number such that

where the right-hand side is the average rate of change of f on the interval [0.5,0.75], which is the slope of the secant line.

in the attached graph, the black line is the secant line which has its slope as the average rate of change of f on [0.5,0.75], while the orange line is the only tangent line to the graph of f in the interval that satisfies the mvt conclusion.

-60.75

step-by-step explanation:

just add the numbers then put the negative sign on it
