3What do you think the correct answer is / why do you think that you are wrong? (Side note: It might have been easier to let $ D = 45, h = 2$ be constant from the start.) – Calvin Lin Dec 03 '20 at 08:09

1Its 15m from the building so your $d$ is not $15$ its $30$...does that fix it? – Siddhanth Iyengar Dec 03 '20 at 08:11

1He is 15 m from the building. It looks like you are using 15 m from the light. – David Mitra Dec 03 '20 at 08:11

He is fifteen meters away from the wall after 5 seconds. Where do you use this fact? (Since you need to calculate $\frac{dH(t)}{dt}|_{t=5}$) – Peter Melech Dec 03 '20 at 08:30
