Question

ZOOLOGY A tiny songbird called the blackpoll warbler migrates each fall from North America. A tracking study showed one bird flew from Vermont at map coordinates (63,45) to Venezuela at map coordinates (67,10) in three days. If each map coordinate represents 75 kilometers, how far did the bird travel? Round to the nearest kilometer.

Answer 1

So, There are steps to find out the total distance migrated by bird ( Blackpoll warbler )

• Use, Section formula to find out the distance between the coordinates of ( 67 , 10 ) and ( 63 , 45 ).
• Given each map co-ordinates represent 75kms. So, in 35.278 is the units in the distance of ( 67,10 ) and ( 63,45 ). These total distance migrated by bird is = Distance of co-ordinate × Map of each co-ordinate.
