Step-by-step explanation:

Let d_{1} be the distance Surya swam and d_{2} be the distance he bicycled. We know that   = 43.29 km.

Now let t_{1} and t_{2} be the time, in hours, it took Surya to complete the swimming and bicycling portions of  the race, respectively.

That means t_{1} + t_{2} = 81.75/60 = 1.3625 hours, and t_{2} = 1.3625 –  t_{1}

Using the  distance formula, we have d_{1} = 4t_{1} and d_{2} = 40t_{2}

= 40(1.3625 –t_{1} )

= 54.5 – 40 t_{1}

Substituting these  expressions for  and  in our first equation yields 4t_{1} + 54.5 – 40t_{1} = 43.29.

Solving for  we see that  - 36 t_{1}= - 11.21, meaning it took Surya t_{1} = 0.31138(Bar) hours to complete the swimming portion of the race.

This is equivalent to 0.31138(Bar)(60) = 18.683(Bar)≈ 18.68 minutes.
