70 / 35 = 2
So the 70 pound dog weights double the weight of the 35 pound dog, so he will eat twice as much.
2 x 2.5 = 5 cups
Meaning he will eat 5 cups of dry dog food a day.
By the same logic a 140 pound dog would have to eat twice what a 70 pound dog eats, that is 10 cups of dry dog food a day, so 7 1/2 cups are not enough.
Challenge: per pound a dog eats more than a cat. Since you know a 140 pound dog eats 10 cups, you can dive 140 by 10, to find out that each cup feeds 14 pounds, so half a cup would be the amount of food to feed a 7 pound dog, meaning that a dog weighing 1 pound less than a 8 pound cat would need the same amount of food, so it eats more than a cat.
It would surely be helpful if you let us know which angles to measure!
So,
Home ---- gym = 3.6 mi.
gym ---- store = .7 mi.
store ----- home = x
3.6 + .7 + x = 7.2 mi.
Collect Like Terms
4.3 + x = 7.2
Subtract 4.3 from both sides
x = 2.9
The distance from the store to her home is 2.9 miles.

EXPLANATION
We have that the car covers a distance of 5726 meters in 50 seconds.
To find the speed, we have to use the formula for speed which is:
So, the unit rate of speed of the car is:
That is the unit rate of speed of the car in meters per second.
