Answer:
Total eclipse was 
minutes longer than in 2005.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given in the question that total eclipse in 2003 lasted 
minutes and in 2005 it lasted 3/8 of a minute.
We have to calculate how much longer did it last in 2003.
So we have to subtract the duration in 2003 by duration in 2005
Total time taken in 2003- total time taken in 2005
minutes
First we clear y from the given equation
x + 10y = 260
10y = 260-x
y = (260-x) / (10)
Then, we evaluate the function within the domain of it
x = 0
y = (260- (0)) / (10)
y = (260) / (10)
y = 26
x = 10
y = (260- (10)) / (10)
y = (250) / (10)
y = 25
That is, you travel 1 mile in 10 minutes.
Therefore, traveling 26 miles will take:
(26) * (10) = 260 min
answer
it takes for the runner to reach the school 260min.
