Answer:

Distance moved = 42 meters

Mag and Dir = 10 meters northward

Explanation:

Distance is total distance traveled which = 22+16+4 = 42 meters

Displacement is the amount of distance moved from the start point to the end point straight line so our equation for the magnitude is 22-16+4 = 10 meters. Then the direction is northward from the start point. This answer would also be a vector because it has a magnitude and direction.
