Answer:

Tommy and Manuel are 16 ft apart

Step-by-step explanation:

The locations of all three players are shown in the image below

They form a right triangle where the hypotenuse is 20 ft, and one of the legs is 12 ft. We must find the other leg.

We must use Pythagoras's theorem. Being a and b the legs of a right triangle and c its hypotenuse, then

c^2=a^2+b^2

Knowing c and one of the legs, say b:

a^2=c^2-b^2

Using the values c=20, b=12 we find

a^2=20^2-12^2=400-144=256

a=\sqrt{256}=16

So, Tommy and Manuel are 16 ft apart

x=0.96/4=0.24

Each cup is $0.24
