The map of an amusement park is displayed on a coordinate plane. Yoko's two favorite attractions at the park are the bumper cars and the Ferris wheel. Complete the parts below to find the distance between the two attractions. (a) On the map, the bumper cars are at (-2, - 6) and the Ferris wheel is at (1, - 1). Draw a right triangle so that the hypotenuse is the segment between these two points.

(b) Let x be the length of the hypotenuse. Use the triangle you drew and the Pythagorean Theorem to fill in the blanks.

(c) Find x, the length of the hypotenuse. Give an exact answer (not a decimal approximation).
(d) Each unit on the map represents 0.2 kilometers in real life. Use your answer from part (c) to find the distance between the bumper cars and the Ferris wheel in real life. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
