Zorluk: ZorGuide and Informational Signs

On many interstate highway systems using milepost-based exit numbering, exit numbers correspond directly to the mile marker nearest to the interchange. If a motorist enters a northbound interstate at Exit 28 and proceeds along the highway until departing at Exit 83, what does the numerical difference between these two exit numbers indicate to the driver?

  1. The driver has traveled a distance of approximately 55 miles along the interstate between the two interchanges.Cevap
  2. B
    There are exactly 55 intermediate exits located between the driver's entry and exit points.
  3. C
    The driver is currently located 55 miles south of the next state border or route terminus.
  4. D
    The minimum recommended speed limit increases by 55 miles per hour between these two highway segments.

Cevap

The numerical difference indicates that the driver has traveled approximately 55 miles along the interstate between the two interchanges.
Under standard milepost-based highway guide sign conventions, exit numbers directly reflect the distance in miles from the starting point of the route (usually the southern or western state line). Therefore, calculating the difference (83−28=5583 - 28 = 55) determines the distance in miles traveled along that corridor.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the type of highway exit numbering system described in the scenario.
The scenario specifies a milepost-based exit numbering system.
Milepost-based guide signs assign exit numbers corresponding to the mile marker location where the exit is located.
2
Calculate the difference between the exit numbers.
83−28=5583 - 28 = 55 miles.
Because exit numbers match mile marker values, subtracting the starting exit number from the ending exit number yields the total distance traveled in miles.
