UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

To find the area of the region formed by the four given locations, we first identify the coordinates of the points:

- John's school: $$ (5, -5) $$
- McDonald's: $$ (5, 3) $$
- The mall: $$ (2, -5) $$
- His home: $$ (2, 3) $$

These points form the vertices of a rectangle. The horizontal distance (width) is the difference in the $$x$$-coordinates, and the vertical distance (height) is the difference in the $$y$$-coordinates.

1. Calculate the width:
   $$
   \text{Width} = |5 - 2| = 3
   $$

2. Calculate the height:
   $$
   \text{Height} = |3 - (-5)| = 8
   $$

3. Find the area of the rectangle:
   $$
   \text{Area} = \text{Width} \times \text{Height} = 3 \times 8 = 24 \text{ units}^2
   $$

The correct answer is:

a. 24 units $$^{2}$$
The area between the four locations is 24 square units. You are an AI assistant. User will you give you a question and an answer, and you will assess the validity of the answer based on the question.
