Answer:

21h miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The appropriate relation is ...

distance = speed · time

__

We are given that ...

biking time = h

walking time = 2h

running time = (1/4)(2h) = h/2

The total distance traveled is ...

total distance = biking distance + walking distance + running distance

= (10)(h) +(3)(2h) +(10)(h/2)

= 10h + 6h + 5h

total distance = 21h . . . miles:
