This is since she walked 4 steps forward than 3 back, making seven.

And she's now only 1 step away from the staring place, making one.

So it would be 7,1

The distance walked would be the total amount of her movement.

4 steps+3 steps=7 steps


The displacement is how far from her original location the girl is.

4 steps-3 steps=1 step.


C) 7, 1


Hope this helps!!
