Answer:

470.4 Miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points (x_1,y_1) \& (x_2,y_2) is obtained using the distance formula:

Distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Given Town A at (4, 8) and Town B is at (7, 17).

Distance between A and B is:

AB=\sqrt{(7-4)^2+(17-8)^2}\\=\sqrt{(4)^2+(9)^2}\\AB=\sqrt{97} \approx 9.8\\$Since .5 Units=24 Miles\\1 Unit =48 Miles\\Therefore:\\9.8 Units = 9.8 X 48 =470.4 Miles

The distance between AB is 470.4 Miles.
