Dana has 4 hours to spend training for an upcoming race. She completes her training by running full speed the distance of the ra

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

2hrs 40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for distance is expressed as:

$d=st, s=speed, t=time$

#The time taken to run:

$d=st\\\\t=d/s\\\\t_r=d/8$

#The time taken to walk:

$d=st\\\\t=d/s\\\\t_w=d/2$

#Since the distances are the same:

$d_r=8t_r,d_w=2t_w\\\\8t_r=2t_w\\\\t_r+t_w=4->t_w=4-t_r\\\\\therefore8t_r=2(4-t_r)\\\\8t_r=8-2t_r\\\\t_r=1\frac{1}{3} \hrs\\\\t_w=4-1\frac{1}{3}=2\frac{2}{3}\ hrs$

Hence, Dana spends 2hrs 40 minutes walking back
