Answer:
He spent 11.25 minutes running
Step-by-step explanation:
Mr. Boyd completed a 3.19 mile walk/ run.
For every 5 minutes of walking, he ran for 1.5 minutes.
He completed his workout in 48.52 minutes.
Hence, we have the equation:
1.5x + 5x = 48.52 minutes
6.5x = 48.52 minutes
x = 48.52/6.5
x = 7.4646153846
Approximately = 7.5 minutes
Therefore the time spent running = 1.5 × 7.5 minutes
= 11.25 mimutes
