Answer:
40 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
In the attached diagram, Point A is the starting point and C is the end point. We want to determine the distance from A to C.
The path driven forms a right triangle in which AC is the hypotenuse.
We therefore use the<u> Pythagorean Theorem</u> to solve for the AC.
Pythagorean Theorem:
The straight line distance from the starting point is 40 miles.

Answer:
Yes, they are all correct
Step-by-step explanation:
From the attached image, we see that the sign is showing;
Parking lot: ¾ miles
Summit: 1½ miles
Summit distance can also be expressed as an improper fraction = 3/2 miles
Now, since they started hiking from the park to the summit, it means that they had moved ¾ mile from the parking lot and had 3/2 miles left to get to the summit.
Thus, total distance from parking lot to summit = ¾ + 3/2 = 9/4 miles
Now, let's analyze each of their statements;
Mai said they are a third of their way there.
They had covered 3/4 mile and the total distance is 9/4 miles.
Thus, fraction of total distance covered is;
9/4 ÷ 3/4 = 1/3.
So, Mai is correct
Clare said they have to go twice as far as they had already gone.
They had covered 3/4 miles.
Therefore, twice this = 2 × 3/4 = 6/4 = 3/2 which is same as the sign distance left to the summit.
Thus, Clare is correct
Tyler said that the total hike is three times as long as what we have already gone.
They had gone 3/4 miles
3 times this = 3 × 3/4 = 9/4 miles.
This tallies with the total distance calculated earlier.
Thus, they are all correct
