Question 568575
d = rt


2.5 = r(28)


2.5/28 = r


0.08928571 = r


r = 0.08928571



So the rate is roughly 0.08928571 miles per min. Now use this to find out how long it will take to run 1.5 miles



d = rt


1.5 = 0.08928571t


1.5/0.08928571 = t


16.8 = t


t = 16.8



So it will take 16.8 minutes.
