Gabriele enters an east–west straight bike path at the 3.0-km mark and rides west at a constant speed of 8.0 m/s. At the same time, Xena rides east from the 1.0-km mark at a constant speed of 6.0 m/s. (a) Write functions x(t) that describe their positions as a function of time with respect to Earth. (b) Where do they meet each other? In how many different ways can you solve this problem? (c) Write a function x(t) that describes Xena’s motion with respect to Gabriele.
