Given:
Number of trips = 7
Distance from the school to the museum = 36 miles.
To find:
Write and solve equations to find how many miles the bus driver drove for the 7 trips.
Solution:
Let x be the number of trips and y be the total number of miles the bus driver drove.
Distance from the school to the museum = 36 miles.
1 trip means from the school to the museum and then from the museum to the school.
Distance covered in 1 trip = 2×36 = 72 miles.
Distance covered in x trips = 72x miles.
Substitute x=7 in the above equation to find the total distance the bus driver drove for the 7 trips.
Therefore, the bus driver drove 504 miles for the 7 trips.
Since the distance in between each plate is 90ft. We know from home to 1st is 90ft. To get to 2nd from first is also 90ft. So 90 + 90 is 180ft.
Now this question is weird because it could be asking how far would a baseball player would have to run to get to 1st then 2nd
Or
Could be asking the distance from Home to 2nd without going to 1st. So just a straight line from home to 2nd.
If that’s the case we need to use the Pythagorean theorem
Our setup would be 90^2 + 90^2 = c^2
Adding A and B will get us 16200. Now we need to divide to get to the other side. But C is squared. So we need to Square root 16200. Which is 127.28ft.
