Answer:
7.5 m towards the mirror.
Explanation:
distance between mirror and the man = distance between mirror and his image.
so his distance from his image will be = twice the distance between him and the mirror. so in this case, if he has to be 5m away from his image, he has got to be 2.5 m away from the mirror. Since, he is 10m away from the mirror now, to be 2.5 meter away from the mirror he has to walk 7.5 m towards the mirror.(10-2.5=7.5)
Hope it helps. Have a nice day:)
