Answer:

4.6 km

Step-by-step explanation:

-This is a Pythagorean Theorem problem where the distances walked are effectively the base and height of the imaginary right triangle thereof.

#Apply Pythagorean theorem to solve:

b^2+h^2=H^2\\\\2^2+x^2=5^2\\\\x^2=5^2-2^2=21\\\\x=\sqrt{21}\\\\x=4.58\  km

\approx 4.6\ km

Hence, the distance x is 4.6 km

Which shows a function that is decreasing<br>over its entire graph? Working on it now need ASAP ​
PtichkaEL [24]

One thing everyone always forgets is we don't usually see the <em>entire</em> graph.  Once out of the frame, these functions can do anything they want.

From what we can see, only the bottom right one is always decreasing.

Answer: bottom right

By the way, the top right graph (a vertical line) isn't a function.
