Answer:

Matha - Jim = 200 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Jim's distance</u></em>

J = sqrt(w^2 + L^2)

  • w = 300
  • L = 400

J = sqrt(300^2 + 400^2)

J = sqrt(900 + 1600)

J = sqrt(2500)

J = 500

<em><u>Martha's distance</u></em>

M = 300 + 400

M = 700 Feet

Answer

M - J = 700 - 500 = 200

Jim walks 200 feet less than Martha.
