How long did it take Joseph to run that in total? Then subtract 2.4 minutes from that time and you have your answer.

i treid that it will not work

7.2 is the wrong answer.

OpenStudy (hlares):

Both Joseph and Terrence ran the same number of miles (2), so you can disregard that piece of information when solving this problem. Now, Joseph completed two miles in 9.6 minutes and Terrence completed it 2.4 minutes slower than Joseph did. Thus, you will want to add 9.6 and 2.4 together for the total number of minutes it took Terrence to complete the race.

OpenStudy (hlares):

Since Terrence came in 2.4 minutes after Joseph did.
