EXPLANATION = BRAINLIEST

Each gridline represents one mile. If Ryan drove from home to the soccer field and then from the soccer field to the library, traveling in a straight line to each destination, he would have traveled ___ miles by the time he reached the library.

Answer 1

Answer:

13units

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the distance formula;

D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

Distance from home to the soccer field is expressed as;

Home (0,0) and soccer field (-4,3)

D =√(3-0)²+(-4-0)²

D =√3²+4²

D =√9+16

D = √25

D = 5

Distance from  soccer field to library is expressed as;

Library (4,3) and soccer field (-4,3)

D =√(-4-4)²+(3-3)²

D =√(-8)²+0²

D =√64

D = 8

Hence the total distance = 5 + 8 = 13units
