Answer:

Total Distance = 24 miles


Step-by-step explanation:

The attached picture shows the 4 locations in the coordinate grid.

  • Margarite went from home to supermarket, then
  • supermarket to municipal, then
  • municipal to post office, then
  • post office to home.

Looking at the picture, it should be clear the distance for each "leg" of her journey. Below we write the distances:

  • home to supermarket: 7 units
  • supermarket to municipal: 5 units
  • municipal to post office: 7 units
  • post office to home: 5 units

Total distance = [tex]7+5+7+5=24[/tex] units

Each unit is 1 mile, hence total distance = 24 miles
