Question

The map shows different events at a ski resort. Each unit of the coordinate plane represents 1 mile.

What is the distance between snow tubing and the ski lift?
A. 6 miles
B. 7 miles
C. 13 miles
D. 17 miles

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

Let us write down the coordinates of the snow tubing and the ski lift.

Ski Lift = (3 , -4)

Snow Tubing = (3, 3)

We want to find the distance, which can be found by subtracting their y coordinates from each other.

-4 - 3 = 7

or

3 - (-4 ) = 7

If you can, you can always count the squares away each point is from each other. The answer is B - 7 miles.Let us write down the coordinates of the snow tubing and the ski lift.
