Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

  • 3.08 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Total distance = 10 miles
  • Total time = 2 hours
  • Distance walked = x
  • Speed walked = 2 mph
  • Distance cycled = 10 - x
  • Speed cycled = 15 mph

<u>Using the given data we can have the equation below to the time:</u>

  • x/2 + (10 - x)/15 = 2
  • 30x/2 + 30(10 - x)/15 = 30(2)
  • 15x + 20 - 2x = 60
  • 13x = 60 - 20
  • 13x = 40
  • x = 40/13
  • x = 3.08 miles <em>rounded to 2 decimal places</em>
