Question

Kimani works for the city and is reimbursed for his mileage when traveling for work. In order to submit his reimbursement form, he needs to record his mileage from the Supermarket to the Library. How much money will Kimani be reimbursed if he receives $0.50 per mile?
A) 0.50
B) 2.50
C) 5.00
D) 10.00

Answer 1

The mileage from the Supermarket to the Library may be calculated using Pythagorean Theorem.

The coordinates of the Library are (7,10) and the coordinates of the Supermarket are (3,7).

So, the distance requested is √ [ (7-3)^2 + (10 - 7)^2 = √[ 4^2 + 3^2 = √ [16 + 9] =

= √25 = 5

So, he runs 5 miles.

And the reimbursement will be $0.50 / mile * 5 mile = $ 2.50.

Answer: option B) $ 2.50
