Answer:

C. 2.0 < t < 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of track (D) = 2 miles, Average rate (A) = 3 miles per hour

A = distance/ time

time (t) = distance/A

distance around the track (circumference) = πD = 3.142 × 2 miles = 6.284 miles

t = 6.284miles/3miles/hour = 2.1 hour

Therefore, 2.0 < t < 2.5
