Answer:
D) 3.15 miles
Explanation:
The total distance travelled is 3.15 miles. Distance is found simply by adding up all the individual parts. The displacement would be 0.
Answer:
A) 0 miles
Explanation:
The displacement is the distance between the starting point and the end point of the route.
In this case, even if Matino takes a whole tour around the city, since it ends in the same place where it started, the difference between the starting and finishing point is zero, so its total displacement is zero.
Care must be taken to distinguish the terms of displacement and distance traveled, beacause they are not the same, since in this case the distance traveled would be 3.15miles, but the displacement is zero, because it ends at the point where it started.
