Explanation and work:
To find the answer for this question, we would use the numbers we know that was provided in the question and use it to get us the answer.
The equation we would use in this type of question is the Pythagorean Theorem.
Pythagorean Theorem:
a² + b² = c²
When you draw out the different locations, it would end up looking like a triangle since you trying to find the diagonal line from the grocery store to the house. In the triangle, it would be the hypotenuse. I will put a picture below.
Lets start solving:
1.8 would be plugged into "a"
2.4 will be plugged into "b"
(1.8)² + (2.4)² = c²
↓ ↓ ↓
3.24 + 5.76 = c²
↓
9 = c²
↓
√9 = √c²
↓
3 = c
3 miles would be your FINAL answer.

With the facts you got here, you can make the following equation:
x*(x+2)=24
x^2+2x=24
x^2+2x-24=0
Then you can use the following formula (which you might have seen before):
x = (-b +/- sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a
where
ax^2+bx+c=0
(-2 +/- sqrt(4+96))/2
(-2 +/- 10)/2
x_1 = 4
x_2 = -6
So we can set up a simple equation for this, where the word “what” is a variable, x. This equation is 3 - x=11. Then we subtract 3 from both sides, giving us -x=8. We can divide both sides by -1, giving us x=-8. The answer would be -8. Hope this helped.
= 3 × 10-11

= 3e-11
(scientific e notation)
= 30 × 10-^12

well, you can multiply the values to where they are equivalent, so multiply 2/3 by 4 ( both numbers ) so you get 8/12 and 3/12, so, just in case you want POST added, the answer to 2/3 ( 8/12 ) + 3/12 = is 11/12!
Hope this helps, if not, comment below please!!!
