Answer:
3.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The straight line distance from the school to the mall is found using the Pythagorean theorem. That distance is the hypotenuse of a triangle that is 27 blocks in the east-west direction and 22 blocks in the north-south direction.
d = √(27^2 +22^2) = √1213 ≈ 34.83 . . . blocks
Since each block is 0.1 miles, the distance in miles is ...
distance to mall = (0.1 miles/block)(34.83 blocks) = 3.483 miles
Rounded to tenths, the distance from school to mall is 3.5 miles.
Most of the time for coordinate planes, they are asking you to plot the point correctly, and to state which quadrant the point falls into.
The Quadrant points start at (+ , +) for Quadrant I, and moves clockwise. See attached picture.
Quadrant I: (+ , +)
Quadrant II: (+ , -)
Quadrant III: (- , -)
Quadrant IV: (- , +)
Remember, the point is split into two parts, in which the first one is x (which signifies the placement for the horizontal line), while the other is y (which signifies the placement for the vertical line).
