Question

{WORTH BRAINLIEST WITH AN EXPLANATION} Janine is a police officer patrolling a street. She drives 2.2 km east, then 4.4 km west, then 1.7 km east. If east is the positive direction, which of the following equations are accurate? (select all that apply)

Answer 1

Answer:

Options (3) and (6)

Explanation:

Janine drives 2.2 km East.

Since, distances measured in the East are positive,

Displacement = 2.2 km

Then she drives 4.4 km west

Displacement = -4.4 km

Followed by 1.7 km in the East

Displacement = 1.7 km

Total displacement = 2.2 - 4.4 + 1.7 = -0.5 km

$\overrightarrow{d}=-0.5$ km

Total distance covered by Janine = 2.2 + 4.4 + 1.7 = 8.3 km

d = 8.3 km

Therefore, Options (3) and (6) will be the answer.
