The car, leaving the village, drove to a gas station located 2 km from the village. 10 minutes later, the car was on a bridge located 14 km from the village. What is the distance between the bridge and the gas station? (Select the village as the starting point.) How fast the car was moving

1) What is the distance between the bridge and the gas station, if they are located on the same side of the village, knowing that the car, having left the village, drove to a gas station located two kilometers from the village, then after a while it ended up on the bridge located 14 kilometers from the village?
14 – 2 = 12 (km).
2) What is the distance between the bridge and the gas station if they are located on opposite sides of the village?
14 + 2 = 16 (km).
3) How fast was the car moving if it is known from the problem statement that 10 minutes after refueling the car was on a bridge located 14 kilometers from the village?
10 minutes = 1/6 hour
14: 1/6 = 84 (km / h).
Answer: The distance between the bridge and the gas station is 12 or 16 kilometers, and the vehicle speed is 84 km / h.
