Answer:
In the picture attached, the question is shown.
a) Applying Pythagorean theorem to triangle ABC, and solving for AC:
CB² + BA² = AC²
5² + 12² = AC²
√169 = AC
13 cm = AC
b) Applying Pythagorean theorem to triangle ACD, and solving for AD:
CD² + AC² = AD²
5² + 13² = AD²
√194 = AD
13.9 cm = AD
Answer:
The x-value is between 2 and 3, and the y-value is between -4 and -5
Step-by-step explanation:
The plot of the equations:
y = 1/4x - 5 (red)
y = -1/2x - 3 (blue)
is shown in the figure attached.
The solution to the system is found at the intersection point. In this case, the solution is x = 2.667 and y = -4.333
