We can use the formula:
distance = rate x time
For running:
distance = 18/3 = 6 miles per hour
For biking:
distance = 18/2 = 9 miles per hour
If Maya ran for t hours, she would cover a distance of:
6t miles
If she biked for r hours, she would cover a distance of:
9r miles
The total distance Maya traveled would be:
distance = 6t + 9r miles
distance = rate x time
For running:
distance = 18/3 = 6 miles per hour
For biking:
distance = 18/2 = 9 miles per hour
If Maya ran for t hours, she would cover a distance of:
6t miles
If she biked for r hours, she would cover a distance of:
9r miles
The total distance Maya traveled would be:
distance = 6t + 9r miles
