To determine which statement is true based on the information provided, we would need specific details from the diagram, such as exact distances between the locations. However, I can offer some guidance on how to evaluate the statements:

  1. The distance from your house to the farmer's market is less than 5 miles.
  2. The distance from your house to the bank and then the farmer's market is 8 miles.
  3. The distance from your house to the bank and then the farmer's market is greater than 5 miles.
  4. The distance from your house to the bank and then the farmer's market is equal to 5 miles.
  • If the sum of the distance from your house to the bank and from the bank to the farmer's market totals 8 miles, then statement 2 is true, and statement 3 would also be true.
  • If the distance from your house to the bank is, for example, 3 miles and from the bank to the farmer's market is 5 miles, then the total is 8 miles, making statement 2 true and statement 4 false.
  • If the distance from your house to the farmer's market directly is less than 5 miles, then statement 1 may also be true.

Without the actual numbers from the diagram, I can't definitively say which statement is true. If you can provide those distances, I can help you determine the accurate answer.
