Answer:
Mandaloun won the race.
Explanation:
First, we will calculate the time taken by the Hot Rod Charlie:
[tex]s = vt\\t = \frac{s}{v}[/tex]
where,
t = time taken by Hot Rod Charlie = ?
s = distance covered = 1.25 miles
v = speed of Hot Rod Charlie = 0.79 miles/min
Therefore,
[tex]t = \frac{1.25\ miles}{0.79\ miles/min} \\t = 1.58 min[/tex]
Since Hot Rod Charlie took more time (1.58 min) than the Mandaloun (1.52 min).
Therefore Mandaloun won the race.
