Do you think that the von thunen model is viable in today’s world? why or why not?

Answer:

Von Thunen model explains the agricultural land usage which varies from the central market.

Explanation:

The main aim of the Von Thunen model shows the agricultural land use pattern from the market. This model is not suitable for today's scenario because it has been proposed before the green and the technological revolution. This model over-empasised the transportation cost but today transportation is much a viability than the other costs. It even ignored the fossil fuel usage and several modifications which has been done by the several philosophers.

the answer would be the third option, "no, ariel should have added 9^2 and 12^2 and compared that to 15^2."

this is found through the pythagorean theorem, which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

this is the correct way of solving the problem:

9^2 + 12^2 = 15^2

81 + 144 = 225

225 = 225
