Shahriyar is at a winter park with his family. They go sledding first, then ice skating, then skiing. What is the total distance traveled between these locations? sledding is at 2, 12 ice skating is at 2, -4 and skiing is at -8, -4
To find the total distance traveled, we need to calculate the distance between each pair of locations and then sum them up.
The distance between sledding and ice skating can be found using the distance formula: √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
Using the coordinates (2, 12) for sledding and (2, -4) for ice skating:
Distance = √((2 - 2)^2 + (-4 - 12)^2)
= √(0 + 256)
= √256
= 16
Similarly, the distance between ice skating and skiing:
Distance = √((2 - (-8))^2 + (-4 - (-4))^2)
= √((2 + 8)^2 + (0)^2)
= √(10^2 + 0)
= √100
= 10
So the total distance traveled is 16 + 10 = 26 units.
put it in mi.
To convert the distances from units to miles, we would need a conversion factor. However, the coordinates provided do not specify a specific scale or measurement unit. Therefore, without additional information, it is not possible to accurately convert the distances from units to miles.
its a coordinate plane that goes to 12 max
Thank you for providing the maximum value on the coordinate plane. In this case, we can assume that the coordinates are given in miles.
Using the coordinates (2, 12) for sledding and (2, -4) for ice skating:
Distance = √((2 - 2)^2 + (-4 - 12)^2)
= √(0 + 256)
= √256
= 16 miles
Similarly, using the coordinates (-8, -4) for skiing:
Distance = √((2 - (-8))^2 + (-4 - (-4))^2)
= √((2 + 8)^2 + (0)^2)
= √(10^2 + 0)
= √100
= 10 miles
So the total distance traveled is 16 + 10 = 26 miles.
