Maria plots the locations of 4 places on a coordinate grid as given below.
her house is at (−4, 9).
her school is at (−4, 3).
the community center is at (1, 3).
the grocery store is at (−4, −8).
part a: use absolute values to calculate the distance in units from maria's house to her school. show your work.
part b: is the total distance from maria's house to the school to the grocery store greater than the total distance from maria's house to the school to the community center? justify your answer.

Well, A is just 2. Not sure how to use absolute values to do it, but its just 2 units away. They're on the same x value so the only thing you need to do is count the y-distance. 5-3 = ? B. For the first part, house -> school -> store is again just adding y distances. |5 - 3| + |3 - (-9)| = ? And for the second part. house -> school -> community(this time school and community are on same y axis so just add the distance in x distance) |5 - 3| + |(-4) - 6| = ? Conclusion: ?

d) 30 units^2

area of rectangle = l × b

we know,

length = 10 unit

breadth = 3 unit

applying the formula,

= l × b

= 10 × 3

= 30 unit^2
