Answer:

B. 6 hours and 40 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion where x is the amount of time to hike the entire 8 miles.

Represent the time in minutes:

\frac{130}{2.6} = \frac{x}{8}

Cross multiply and solve for x:

2.6x = 1040

x = 400

Convert this to hours:

400/60

= 6.67 (6 hours and 40 mins)

So, the correct answer is B. 6 hours and 40 mins
