Answer:

4.71 miles

Explanation:

Janet must run the length of the circumference of the circular lake.

The circumference of a circle is given as:

C = πD

where D = diameter of the circle.

The diameter of the circular lake is 1.5 miles. Therefore, its circumference is:

C = 3.14 * 1.5

C = 4.71 miles

She must run 4.71 miles.
