That is so cool, thanks for the trick idea.
The answer is 4 because 2--2 the two negatives make it a positive so its 2+2=4
Answer:
<em>The gold vein is 96 miles away from the farthest gold dust strike.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Distance Between two Points in the Plane
</u>
Given two points A(x,y) and B(w,z), the distance between them is:

The prospector positioned the gold vein at (-2,9) and the farthest gold dust strike at (94,9). We are required to calculate the distance between these two points. Use the formula:



The distance is 96 units, but we know each unit on the graph represents 1 mile, thus the gold vein is 96 miles away from the farthest gold dust strike.
386 divided by 20 is 19.3 so Greg averaged 19.3 miles per gallon.
