Question

The Fun Committee is hosting the Annual City Festival. Jennifer is in charge of the committee and is planning a race to raise money for the Festival. The runners will earn money from donors for the number of miles they run. If the runners start at the park, run to City hall, and then run back to the park, how many total miles will each runner run? Show your work and leave your answer in simplest radical form if necessary.

Answer 1

We need to find the distance between (7, 5) and (10, 11) and double it, since they run it twice. We can do this as follows: 2√(11-5)² + (10-7)² = 2√36 + 9 = 2√45 = 6√5.
