hey there is answers !!!====================

let


v1 = 6 km/h the walking speed

v2 = 10 km/h the jogging speed

t1 = the he walked

t2 = the time he jogged

d = 9 km the total distance


t1 + t2 = 1


since speed = distance/time => distance = speed*time


v1*t1 + v2*t2 = d 


6t1 + 10t2 = 9


by solving the system of equations


t1 + t2 = 1

6t1 + 10t2 = 9


we find


t1 = 0.25 h = 0.25*60 min = 15 min


t2 = 0.75 h = 0.75*60 min = 45 min


==================


he walked 15 min.


the distance he walked is equal to v1*t1 = 6*0.25 = 1.5 km.
