Answer:

O Distance​

Step-by-step explanation:

With the given information, it is possible to find the distance of the car has traveled on the home from school.

This is possible because distance is the length of path a body covers.

From the given values:

Distance = 5208 - 5200 = 8miles

It is not possible to find the displacement because no direction was given.

Also velocity is not possible since the time frame of travel was not state.
