On their most recent 8-mile training run, Pepe averaged a speed of I of a mile in 4.5 minutes, while Paula averaged of a mile in 7.5

minutes.

How many minutes did it take the faster runner to finish the 8 mile

run?

36 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The length of run = 8 miles

Average speed of Pepe = 4.5 minutes per minute

Average speed of Paula = 7.5 minutes per minute

To find:

Minutes taken by the faster runner to finish the 8 mile run?

Solution:

First of all, let us have a look at the relation between Time and Speed.

If the distance is a constant, then

i.e. Speed is inversely proportional to time.

That means faster runner will take smaller amount of time.

So, faster runner is Pepe who is taking lesser time.

Time taken to complete 1 mile = 4.5 minutes

Time taken to complete 8 miles = 4.5 8 minutes = 36 minutes

So, the faster runner i.e. Pepe takes 36 minutes.

y=1/4x-4
