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
