Answer:
d=√73=8.544
Step-by-step explanation:
Find distance (d) between market (0,8) , court house(6,5) and library(6,-1)
d between two pint is :
d=√(x2-x1)²-(y2-y1)²
d between market and court house:
d=√(6-0)²+(5-8)²
d=√36+9=√45 = 6.7082 ≅6.71 rounded to the nearest hundredths
d between courthouse and the library:
d=√(6-6)²+(-1-5)²
d=√36=6
the distance that Runner A ran=6.71+6=12.71
the distance from the library to the school:
d=√(6-(-2))²+(-1-(-4))²
d=√8²+3²
d=√64+9
d=√73=8.544 ( rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Runner B went 8.544 further than Runner A before stopping at school ( which is the distance between the library and the school.
