Question

I NEED THIS NOWW!!!!!!
The coordinate grid below shows the locations of Dave's house(-16,-12), John's house(-16,8), and the community swimming pool(-4,8). Dave cycled in a straight line from his house to John's house, and then together they cycled to the community swimming pool. What is the total distance (in units) that Dave cycled?
20
24
32
40
cant get the grid picture so please don't ask for it i have listed there coordinates up top

Answer 1

check the picture below.

coming straight up from Dave's house at y=-12, up to y = 0 is 12 units, then we keep on going up up to y = 8, 12 + 8, so to get to John's house, is 20 units off the grid.

then they take off to the swimming pool, from x = -16, up to x = -4, what's that difference?   is 12 units, | 16 - 4| = 12.

so, Dave went 20 units to John's house, and then 12 units to the swimming pool.

20 + 12, or 32 units.

Answer 2

(-16,-12) to (-16,8) is 20 units then from (-16,8) to (-4,8) is 12 units so 20+12= 32units
