Consider the triangle formed by the side of the house, the ladder, and the ground. Find the rate at which the area is changing when the base of the ladder is 77 feet from the wall. Show all relevant work. Be sure to include units of measure.

The correct option is;

g(x) = Negative two-fifths(10)x

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule for the reflection across the x-axis is as follows;

Reflection about the x-axis

Pre-image point before reflection = (x, y)

Point of image after reflection = ((x, -y)

Therefore, the x coordinate remains the same while the y coordinate changes sign

For which given that f(x) = y = 2/5(10)x and g(x) = Reflection of f(x) across the x-axis, we have

Reflection about the x-axis

Pre-image point before reflection = (x, f(x))

Point of image after reflection = (x, g(x))

Hence g(x) = -f(x) = -2/5(10)x.
