SUMMARY
The distance between the final destination (10,0) and the point (b,0) is calculated as 10 - b. The person walked a total distance of 10 meters from the starting point (0,0) to the final destination (10,0). Prior to reaching the final destination, the individual stopped between two points, (a,0) and (b,0), with a distance of 2 meters separating them. This discussion clarifies the relationship between these points and the final destination.
