In Freeport, Illinois, Empire Street runs east to west and route 26 runs north to south.
Zippy’s Pizza parlor is located on route 26, 3 miles south of Empire street.
Zippy’s advertises that it delivers within a 4 mile radius.


Write an equation that represents the radius of delivery for Zippy’s Pizza. Assume that Zippy’s is located at the origin.



- How far east and west from route 26 can you live on Empire street and still receive Zippy’s Pizza delivery?

- Little Cubs Field is located 2 miles west and 4 miles north of Zippy’s. How far is Little Cubs Field from Zippy’s?

- How far is Little Cubs Field from the radius of delivery?

Respuesta :

The area to which Zippy's Pizza makes delivery is 16·π square miles

The responses are;

  • First Part: x² + y² = 4²
  • Second Part: √5 miles east and √5 miles west from route 26
  • Third Part: 2·√5 miles
  • Fourth Part: 2·(√5 - 2) miles

Reasons:

The radius of the area that Zippy delivers pizza = 4 miles

Direction in which Empire Street runs = East to west

Direction of the route 26 route = North to south

Location of Zippy's Pizza parlor = 3 miles south of Empire street

-First Part:

The equation that represents the radius of delivery for Zippy's Pizza is given by the equation of a circle as follows;

(x - h)²+ (y - k) = r²

Where:

(h, k) = The center of the circle which is the location of Zippy's Pizza

r = The radius of the circle

Zippy's Pizza is at the center of the circular area with coordinates (h, k) = (0, 0)

r = 4 miles

-Which gives;

(x - 0)² + (y - 0)² = 4²

The equation that represent the radius is; x² + y² = 4²

-Second part:

The locations of addresses on Empire street, relative to Zippy's Pizza are given by the equation;

y = 3

Therefore, we have;

The furthest distances east and west on Empire street that can receive Zippy's Pizza delivery are given by the equation;

x² + 3² = 4²

x = √(4² - 3²) = ±√5

The furthest distances that can receive Zippy's Pizza delivery are ±√5 miles (east and west) from route 26

-Third Part:

Location of Little Cubs = 2 miles west and 4 miles north of Zippy's

The distance from Little Cubs Field to Zippy's = √((2² + 4²) = 2·√5

The distance from Little Cubs Field to Zippy's = 2·√5 miles

-Fourth Part:

The distance between Little Cubs Field from Zippy's radius of delivery, d, is found as follows;

d = 2·√5 - 4 = 2·(√5 - 2)

Therefore, d = 2·(√5 - 2) miles
