On the coordinate grid of a map, josie's house is located at ( 2 , 7 ). her school is located at ( -5 , 5 ). if each map unit equals one mile, what is the approximate distance from her house to her school?
a) 2.83 miles
b) 4.79 miles
c) 7.28 miles
d) 12.37 miles

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

Let

substitute the values

Remember that

each map unit equals one mile

so

C)7.28 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: On the coordinate grid of a map, Josie's house is located at ( 2 , 7 ). Her school is located at ( -5 , 5 ).

Using distance formula ,distance between points (a,b) and (x,y) is :

Now, distance  from her house to her school ia given by :-

Hence, the approximate distance from her house to her school =  7.28 miles

you didn't give me the choices, so i will just give you the graph so you can look at your choices and choose the right one.
