Question

I’m very bad at math , and i’ve been doing this test for awhile now

Answer 1

Answer:

9.4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states that  $A^{2} + B^{2} = C^{2}$. Therefore, we can substitute 8 (the distance traveled due east) for A and 5 (the distance traveled due north) for B.

$8^{2} + 5^{2} = 89$

To find the answer, simply take the square root of 89, and round it to the nearest tenth.

$\sqrt{89} = 9.433981$
