Answer 1

`D_x\approx14.8mile`

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Distance between Edenville and Westfalls
`D_1=7`

Distance between Westfalls and Concord
`D_2=13`

Generally the equation for Pythagoras is mathematically given by

`D_x^2=D_1^2+D_2^2`

`D_x^2=7^2+13^2`

`D_x=√( 7^2+13^2)`

`D_x=14.76482306mile`

The distance b/w Edenville to Concord is

`D_x\approx14.8mile`
