Final answer:
The calculated total distance on the cycle is 36.3 meters, which does not match any of the provided options. There may be an error in the question or options. Hence, we cannot determine a correct choice from the given ones.
The correct option is not given.
Step-by-step explanation:
To work out the total distance on the cycle, we need to add up the distances from each trial.
Trial 1: 5.1 meters + 4 meters
Trial 2: 3.1 meters + 3.5 meters
Trial 3: 4.7 meters + 4.5 meters
Trial 4: 5.3 meters + 6.1 meters
Now, let's calculate the sum for each trial:
Trial 1: 5.1 m + 4 m = 9.1 m
Trial 2: 3.1 m + 3.5 m = 6.6 m
Trial 3: 4.7 m + 4.5 m = 9.2 m
Trial 4: 5.3 m + 6.1 m = 11.4 m
Finally, we add all these sums together to get the total distance:
9.1 m + 6.6 m + 9.2 m + 11.4 m = 36.3 m
Since none of the provided options match the calculated total distance, it appears there may be an error in the question or the options provided. Therefore, based on available information, we cannot determine the correct option from the given choices.
The correct option is not given.
