The total time taken to cover 12 miles distance is 5 hours.

Given the Parameters :

  • Total distance hiked = 12 miles

Recall :

  • Distance = speed × time

Let :

  • Total Time taken = t

We could create an equation thus :

Total distance = 3(2) + 2(t - 2)

12 = 6 + 2t - 4

12 = 2 + 2t

12 - 2 = 2t

10 = 2t

t = 10/2

t = 5

Therefore, the total time taken is 5 hours
