You can put this solution on YOUR website! A women jogging at 6 mi/h passes a man biking in the opposite direction at 12 mi/h. If they maintain their speeds, how far from each other will they be in 10 minutes?
Dist = speed * time
d = (6 + 12) *
d = 18*
d = 3 mi

check solution, find dist each is from their meeting point: *6 = 1 mi *12 = 2 mi
