h - length of the hypotenuse

Use the Pyhagorean theorem:

$h^2=5^2+12^2\\\\h^2=25+144\\\\h^2=169\to h=\sqrt{169}\\\\\boxed{h=13}$

20 Points! Which ordered pair is the best estimate for the solution of the system of equations?

yan [13]

Answer:

The best estimate for the solution is the ordered pair $(-6.5,-3.5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$y=\frac{3}{2}x+6$ ------> equation A

$y=\frac{1}{4}x-2$ ------> equation B

we know that

using a graphing tool, the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

The intersection point is $(-6.4,-3.6)$

therefore

The best estimate for the solution is the ordered pair $(-6.5,-3.5)$
