The diagram shows the locations of three towns and a library. each unit on the grid represents 1.5 kilometers. a. the actual distance between the library and town a is_km. b. the approximate distance between the library and town b is_km. c. amelia traveled from town a to the library to return her books. she then traveled to town b to meet her friend. she and her friend then traveled to town c and had dinner. how far did amelia travel?

a. 6km

b. 6.185 km

c. 18.37 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is on finding the distance of between two points

The general formulae is given by;

Where d is the distance

Given that;

1 unit on grid = 1.5 km

a. Finding distance between the library and Town A

A (-2,3)  and library (2,3)

Actual distance = 4 × 1.5 = 6 km

b. Distance between the library and Town B is

library (2,3)  and town B (1, -1)

Actual distance = 4.123×1.5 =6.185 km

c. First find the distance between Town B and Town C

Town B (1, -1) and Town C (-3,-2)

Actual distance= 4.123×1.5 =6.185 km

Total distance traveled by Amelia = 6 +6.185 +6.185 =18.37 km
