Answer:

12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph given :

Mike's travel :

School to Mall= 16 miles

Mall to Library = 30 miles

Total travel = 16 + 30 = 46 miles

Henry's travel :

From school to Library = Hypotenus :

Distance can be obtained using Pythagoras :

Hypotenus = √(opposite² + adjacent²)

Hypotenus = √(30² + 16²)

Hypotenus = √1156

Hypotenus = 34 miles

Difference in Distance covered :

(46 miles - 34 miles) = 12 miles
