  • Q2
    A 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. What are the coordinates of the rest stop? What is the approximate distance between the high school and the stadium? (One unit is approximately equal to 6.4 miles.)
    (5, 2.5), 5 miles
    (1.5, 2.5), 16 miles
    (1.5, 2.5), 32 miles
