Answer:
Nash ran 6 miles and walked 20 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note: Consider we need to find the number of miles he ran and the number of miles he walked in the first week.
Total distance = 26 miles every week.
Ratio of the number of miles he ran to the number of miles he walked is 3:10.
Let he ran 3x miles and walked 10 x miles. So,
Total distance = 3x+10x
[tex]3x+10x=26[/tex]
[tex]13x=26[/tex]
Divide both sides by 13.
[tex]x=2[/tex]
The value of x is 2.
Number of miles he ran = 3(2) = 6 miles
Number of miles he walked = 10(2) = 20 miles
Therefore, Nash ran 6 miles and walked 20 miles in the first week.
