Hey there :)
Now lets name each house
A B C D E F
500ft <-> 500ft <-> 500ft <-> 500ft <-> 500ft <-> 2000ft
Let's say the bus stops at A
= 0 ( from A ) + 500 ( from B ) + 500 + 500 ( from C ) + 500 + 500 + 500 ( from D ) + 500 + 500 + 500 + 500 ( from E ) + 500 + 500 + 500 + 500 + 2000 ( from F )
= 0 + 500 + 1000 + 1500 + 2000 + 4000
= 9000 ft
at B
= 500 ( from A ) + 0 ( from B ) + 500 ( from C ) + 500 + 500 ( from D ) + 500 + 500 + 500 ( from E ) + 500 + 500 + 500 + 2000 ( from F )
= 500 + 0 + 500 + 1000 + 1500 + 3500
= 7000 ft
at C
= 500 ( from A ) + 500 + 500 ( from B ) + 0 ( from C ) + 500 ( from D ) + 500 + 500 ( from E ) + 500 + 500 + 2000 ( from F )
= 500 + 1000 + 0 + 500 + 1000 + 3000
= 6000 ft
Do the same for D , E and F
at D
= 6000 ft
at E
= 7000 ft
at F
= 15000 ft
You will find that the bus should stop at either C or D to make the sum of distances from every house to the stop as small as possible.

X would equal 8 and y would equal -7
Step-by-step explanation:
I guess, the flower bed is a true rectangle, right ?
so, then, the perimeter of that rectangle is
2×length + 2×width = 2×78 + 2×60 = 156 + 120 = 276 in.
1 ft = 12 in
276 in = 23 ft
she can only buy a bundle of 40 ft.
that means she will have
40 - 23 = 17 ft left.
