Question

(2 points)Theo, Nancy, and Mary each drove separately to meet at their grandmother's house for dinner. Theo drove 50 miles, Nancy drove 2840−−−−√ miles, and Mary's route is shown below.Mary drove approximately miles to her grandmother's house.The order of their drives from shortest to longest is .

Answer 1

To determine the order of the drives from shortest to longest, we first need to calculate the distance Nancy drove, which is given as \( \sqrt{2840} \) miles.

Calculating \( \sqrt{2840} \):

1. \( \sqrt{2840} \approx 53.3 \) (using a calculator or approximation).

Next, we have the distances for each driver:

• Theo: 50 miles
• Nancy: \( \sqrt{2840} \approx 53.3 \) miles
• Mary: (The information for Mary's distance is unspecified; could you please provide it?)

Once we have Mary's distance, we can compare the three distances to determine the order.

Assuming Mary drove an unknown distance X:

Let’s say Mary drove, for example, 60 miles (please replace this with the actual distance):

• Theo: 50 miles
• Nancy: \( \approx 53.3 \) miles
• Mary: x miles (let's use 60 for demonstration)

Now we can list them:

1. Theo: 50 miles
2. Nancy: \( \approx 53.3 \) miles
3. Mary: 60 miles

The order of their drives from shortest to longest would then be:

1. Theo: 50 miles (shortest)
2. Nancy: \( \approx 53.3 \) miles
3. Mary: 60 miles (longest)

Please provide Mary’s distance for an accurate order.

Answer 3

Thank you for providing the distance that Mary drove. Let's summarize the distances:

• Theo: 50 miles
• Nancy: \( \sqrt{2840} \approx 53.3 \) miles
• Mary: 48 miles

Now, let's list the distances clearly:

1. Theo: 50 miles
2. Mary: 48 miles
3. Nancy: \( \approx 53.3 \) miles

To order their drives from shortest to longest:

1. Mary: 48 miles
2. Theo: 50 miles
3. Nancy: \( \approx 53.3 \) miles

So, the final order from shortest to longest is:

Mary, Theo, Nancy.
