Question

0.1.13

Answer 1

Answer:

$Distance = 1572\ feet$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Courthouse = 1068 feet

Gallery = 0.5 mile ----- Missing Part of Question

What the question implies is to

determine the distance between these two locations

This is done as follows:

$Distance = |Courthouse - Gallery|$

Substitute values for Courthouse and Gallery

$Distance = |1068\ feet - 0.5\ mile|$

Convert 0.5 mile to feet (1 mile = 5280 feet)

$Distance = |1068\ feet - 0.5 * 5280\ feet|$

$Distance = |1068\ feet - 2640\ feet|$

$Distance = |-1572\ feet|$

$Distance = 1572\ feet$

Hence, the required distance is 1572 feet
