Awoman jogging at 6mi/hr passes a man biking in the opposite direction at 12mi/hr. if they maintain their speeds, how far from each other will they be in 10 minuets after passing

10 minutes of an hour is 1/6. So all you need to do is 6 divided by 6 and 12 divided by 6. You will get 1 and 2. Add them together because they are going away from each other to get 3 mi. You could alternatively see how far they would both go in an hour, or 12 + 6 = 18. Now do 18 divided by 6, because 10 is 1/6 of 60 to also get 3.

the answer is:

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!
