Question 522524: Anabelle runs the same route every day. She runs part of the way and jogs part of the way. She runs at a speed of 6 mph. She jogs at a speed of 4 mph. If her route is 5 miles, and it takes her one hour how far does she jog? Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! let her jog x miles
so she runs 5-x miles
jog time + run time = 1 hoyr
t=d/r
x/4 + (5-x)/6=1
LCD = 12, multiply by the LCD
3x+2(5-x)=12
3x+10-2x=12
x=2
x=2
she jogs for 2 miles
