Let
x---------------> distance from people living to the city center

we Know that
Zone 1 covers people living within three miles of the city center
Zone 1 ------------> [x < 3 miles]

Zone 2 covers those between three and seven miles from the center
Zone 2 ------------> [ 3 <= x < = 7 miles]

Zone 3 covers those over seven miles from the center
Zone 3 ------------> [ x > 7 miles]

calculate the distance between two points to find the value of x

case A) point (0,0) point (3,4)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(4-0)² +(3-0)²]------> √[16+9]
x=√25-------------> x=5 miles

the answer Part A)
people living in (3,4)
x=5 miles -------------> covers Zone 2 [ 3 < =x <= 7 miles]


case B) point (0,0) point (6,5)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(5-0)² +(6-0)²]------> √[25+36]
x=√61-------------> x=7.81 miles

the answer Part B)
people living in (6,5)
x=7.81 miles -------------> covers Zone 3 [ x > 7 miles]

case C) point (0,0) point (1,2)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(2-0)² +(1-0)²]------> √[4+1]
x=√5-------------> x=2.23 miles

the answer Part C)
people living in (1,2)
x=2.23 miles -------------> covers Zone 1 [ x < 3 miles]

case D) point (0,0) point (0,3)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(3-0)² +(0-0)²]------> √[9]
x=√9-------------> x=3 miles

the answer Part D)
people living in (0,3)
x=3 miles -------------> covers Zone 2 [ 3 < =x <= 7 miles]

case E) point (0,0) point (1,6)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(6-0)² +(1-0)²]------> √[36+1]
x=√37-------------> x=6.08 miles

the answer Part E)
people living in (1,6)
x=6.08 miles -------------> covers Zone 2 [ 3 < = x <= 7 miles]
