An athlete runs 4 miles in 28 minutes and then changes their pace to run the next 4 miles in 32 minutes. Overall, what is the average time in minutes it takes the athlete to run 1 mile?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A.
7 minutes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

B.
8 minutes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

C.
7.5 minutes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

D.
8.5 minutes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To calculate the average time it takes the athlete to run 1 mile, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Calculate the total distance and total time:<\/strong>\n
      \n
    • Total distance = 4 miles + 4 miles = 8 miles<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Total time = 28 minutes + 32 minutes = 60 minutes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Find the average time per mile:<\/strong>Average\u00a0time\u00a0per\u00a0mile=Total\u00a0timeTotal\u00a0distance=60\u00a0minutes8\u00a0miles=7.5\u00a0minutes\u00a0per\u00a0mile\\text{Average time per mile} = \\frac{\\text{Total time}}{\\text{Total distance}} = \\frac{60 \\text{ minutes}}{8 \\text{ miles}} = 7.5 \\text{ minutes per mile}Average\u00a0time\u00a0per\u00a0mile=Total\u00a0distanceTotal\u00a0time\u200b=8\u00a0miles60\u00a0minutes\u200b=7.5\u00a0minutes\u00a0per\u00a0mile<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      So, the average time it takes the athlete to run 1 mile is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
