Answer:

36 miles

Explanation:

Her running speed is 6 mph and her biking speed is 9 mph (from part a and b)

she biked for 3 hours so multiply that by 9 (biking speed) to get 27

she also ran for an 1.5 hours so multiply that with 6 (running speed) to get 9

27+9=36

hope this helps!

Answer:

36

Explanation:

if it is two hours then half of it is 9

so 18 + 9 = 27 which is how many miles she biked

6 is the number of miles she ran

so u times it by 1.5

27 + 9 = 36
