Ican't seem to solve this problem. i have to make an equation to solve this but i don't know how to make an equation for this problem! .

Well each ladder has 30, and then it depends on how each person climbs their ladder. One climb at the rate of -2 per second. The other climb at the rate of 1 per second. Just x is equal to 1, that's why I didnt put 1x.
Equation: 30 + -2x = 30 + x

I’m going to infer you said parallel.solve for yy= -1/2x+7/4lines that are parallel have the same slope, different y intercept.so we know m is -1/2then from there solve for y intercept.

Abit confused about what you mean, but i think you might be referring to slope intercept form: y = mx + bin that case b, or the y intercept is already given.(0,-1)find the slope by using the formulay2 - y1/x2 - x1the final slope will be 4/2, equivalent to 2.now your equation should look like thisy = 4/2x -1sorry if this didn’t you out!
