A toy car is placed at 0 on a number line. It moves 9 cm to the left, then 4 cm to the right, and then 6 cm to the left. What is the total distance the toy car traveled? 1 cm 5 cm 11 cm 19 cm

19 cm

Explanation:

The total distance traveled by the toy cay would be 19 cm.

The total distance traveled should not be mistaken for total displacement. While displacement measures the distance and direction from the starting position of the toy car relative to its final position, the total distance traveled is calculated by adding all the movements of the toy car together. Hence;

Total distance traveled = 9 + 4 + 6 = 19 cm

sorry, but you do not have posted the diagram.

this is a good question! i'll do some research and come back when i have the answer!
