Help plss!!

Answer 1

3.8 kilometers or km

Answer 2

3.8 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Eastern Side Bus

Velocity = 20m/s

Covers distance in 2 min (120sec) = 20×120 = 2400m = 2 km

Western Side Bus

Velocity = 15m/s

Covers distance in 2 min (120sec) = 15×120 = 1800m = 1.8 km

Separation Distance = 2+1.8 = 3.8 km
