Answer:

14.764 (rounded to the nearest thousandths)

Explanation:

Reminder: displacement is the length of the shortest line you can draw from the original point to your current point.

In this case, we can use the pythagorean theorem, where c is the displacement:

8.86^2+11.81^2=c^2

217.9757=c^2

c≈14.764 (rounded to the nearest thousandths)
