Answer:

6.05 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

When the question says "the longest distance is between the school and the park", that distance must be the hypotenuse since the hypotenuse is always longer than the legs. Therefore, the legs must be 3.4 and 5. Using the Pythagorean theorem to solve:

a² + b² = c²

(3.4)² + (5)² = c²

11.56 + 25 = c²

36.56 = c²

√36.56 = √c²

6.05 = c

Therefore, the distance from the school to the park is 6.05 miles.

Mila and samuel had an equal amount of money for shopping. Mila spent $42 and Samuel spent $36. After that, Mila had 1/2 of what
koban [17]

Answer:

Mila had $48 initially

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of money they had be x

Mila spent $42; what is left would be x-42

Samuel spent $36: what is left would be x-36

So, what Mila had left is half of what Samuel has; that would be;

x-42 = 1/2(x-36)

2(x-42) = x -36

2x-84 = x -36

2x - x = 84 -36

x = $48
