Please answer part A and B each one in a picture You drive from town A to city B, and theodometer on your car says you have traveled105 km. You drive the same way back from Bto A the next day and again count 105 km.There is also a bike path between A and B, butit winds along a longer country road. Is 105 kma precise or an accurate measure of the bikingdistance between A and B, rounded to thenearest kilometer?O a. It is accurate and preciseа.O b. It is accurate, but not preciseС.It is precise, but not accurateO d. It is neither accurate, nor precise A person walks around in a circle ofcircumference 10 m until they return to thestarting point. Which of these is true for thisround trip?O a. The displacement and distance areboth zeroO b. The distance is zero, thedisplacement is 10 mO c. The displacement is zero, thedistance is 10 mO d. The distance and displacement areboth 10 m

As odometer measured the distance so it is accurate but it is not precise. Option - b

You drive from town A to city B, and the odometer on your car says you have traveled 105 km. You drive the same way back from B to A the next day and again count 105 km. There is also a bike path between A and B, but it winds along a longer country road. Is 105 km a precise or an accurate measure of the biking distance between A and B, rounded to the nearest kilometer?
