The distance of the run Will be 16miles and the Distance of the bicycle race will be 81 miles.
<h3>What is speed?</h3>
Speed is defined as the ratio of the time distance travelled by the body to the time taken by the body to cover the distance.
Distance = average velocity × time
Let the time and distance of the run, respectively, be t₁ and.d₁
Let those of the bicycle race be t₂ and d₂
From the question,
t₁ + t₂ = 5
d₁ = 8t₁
d₂ = 27t₂
Total distance = 97
8t₁ + 27t₂ = 97
8 ( 5 - t₂ ) + 27t₂ = 97
40 - 8t₂ + 27t₂ = 97
40 + 19 t₂ = 97
19t₂ = 57
t₂ = 3 hours
t₁ + t ₂ = 5
t₁ = 5 - t₂
t₁ = 5 - 3 = 2 hours
Now the distances are calculated as:-
d₁ = 8t₁ = 8 x 2 = 16 miles
d₂ = 27t₂ = 27 x 3 = 81 miles
Therefore the distance of the run Will be 16miles and the Distance of the bicycle race will be 81 miles.
