- Q2A high school soccer team is going to Columbus, Ohio to see a professional soccer game. A coordinate grid is superimposed on a highway map of Ohio. The high school is at point (3, 4) and the stadium in Columbus is at point (7, 1). The map shows a highway rest stop halfway between the high school and the stadium.
