Bob leaves the school walking home at the speed 3mph. At the same time his sister leaves the house and starts biking to school at the speed 12mph. How far from home is their school if they meet in 10 minutes?

2.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

3+12=15

1 hour= 1/6

1/6*15=2.5

intensity of the vector is v= √37 ≈ 6.08 units and make angle ∡α ≈ 9.46° with east direction

step-by-step explanation:

required vector is consists of the two componentsvx= 2+4=6 units   and vy= 1 unit and vx ⊥ vywe will use pythagorian theorem to find intensity of the vector vv∧2 = vx∧2 + vy∧2 => v = √vx∧2 + vy∧2 = √6∧2 + 1∧2 = √36+1 = √37 ≈ 6.08 unitsthe angle ∡α between vector and east direction we wil find with tanαtanα = 1/6 => α = arc tanα = arc 1/6 => α ≈ 9.46°

hope this
