Question

A toy car is placed at 0 on a number line. It moves 9 cm to the left, then 4 cm to the right, and then 6 cm to the left. What is the total distance the toy car traveled? 1 cm 5 cm 11 cm 19 cm

Answer 1

19

Step-by-step explanation:

because all you have to do is add up the distance you see on the there

example : a toy train went 6m to the right and 7m to the left and then it went 9m straight

6+7=13

13+9=22

Answer 2

19

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance traveled by the toy cay would be 19 cm.

The total distance traveled should not be mistaken for total displacement. While displacement measures the distance and direction from the starting position of the toy car relative to its final position, the total distance traveled is calculated by adding all the movements of the toy car together. Hence;

Total distance traveled = 9 + 4 + 6 = 19 cm
