MCQ - 127-11979

Question:

You are looking at a map of your town and your house is located at the coordinate (0,0). Your school is located at the point (3,4). If each coordinate distance is 1.3 miles, how far away is your school?

  1. 7 miles
  2. 32.5 miles
  3. 5 miles
  4. 32.5 miles
  5. 6.5 miles

Correct Answer: E

Explanation:

The coordinate length between you and your school is equivalent to the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides of 3 and 4 units:

x 2 = 3 2 + 4 2

x 2 = 9 + 16

x 2 = 25

x = 5

The distance is 5 coordinate lengths, and each coordinate length corresponds to 1.3 miles of distance, so

5 × 1.3 = 6.5 m i l e s
