Answer:
[tex]y = \frac{-3}{4}x + 36[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question
Height = 36 inches
Stant of the stairs followed that declines 9 inches for every 12 horizontal inches
Height = x
x = from top of the stairs
based on the above information
Therefore the change in rate is
[tex]\frac{-9}{12} = \frac{-3}{4}[/tex]
It depicts the line sloping.
Now the function would be determined by the line equation which is as follows
y = mx+c
[tex]m = \frac{-3}{4}[/tex]
where,
c = 36 inches
So, the function is
[tex]y = \frac{-3}{4}x + 36[/tex]
