PROBLEM: A softball team named the Prairie Dogs is trying to decide where to have its annual team banquet. The players live in three different towns: Buck Springs, Boyce Mills and Ryan Falls. No player wants to travel further than any other. By looking at a map they decide that the banquet should be in one of four places: Morgan City (6,8), Lerchburg (5,9), Flegalville (5,7) or Davistown (8,8). Find by construction which of these towns is equidistant from the three home towns. Then find algebraically the coordinates of the point equidistant from the three home towns. Check your results by finding the straightline distance between your point and the three home towns. The coordinate are: Buck Springs (1,3), Ryan Falls (11,3), and Boyce Mills (7,15).
Thank you for your help!!!!!!
