A 10-foot ladder is placed against the side of a building such that the bottom of the ladder is 8 feet from the base of the building. In order to increase the reach of the ladder against the building, it is moved 3 feet closer to the base of the building.  To the nearest foot, how much further up the building does the ladder now reach? Write an equation(s) that would represent your answer.

102 = 82 + x2 and 102 = 52 + x2, subtract the final answers and round to whole number
