Answer 1

B. Only E

Step-by-step explanation:

a-p-e-x

Answer 2

B. Only E

Step-by-step explanation:

Displacement is a measure of the shortest distance between the start and end points of travel. This is because displacement refers to how far away you have moved from a point, not how far you moved to get there, which would be distance (A+B+C+D).

Since E best shows the shortest distance between the start and finish, the answer is B. Only E.

Hope this helped!
