Answer:
D = 18 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The coordinate of a library = (4,3)
The coordinate of the school = (-5,3)
We need to find the distance between the library and the school. We can use the distance formula i.e.
[tex]D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\\\=\sqrt{(-5-4)^2+(3-3)^2}\\\\=\sqrt{81}\\\\=9\ miles[/tex]
As the distance between each unit represents 2 miles. It means the distance is 2(9) = 18 miles
So, the correct option is (c).
