Answer:

7.5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s be the speed, d be the distance and t be the time.

Speed = Distance/Time

Distance = Speed * Time.

=> d = st. ------------- [1]

d = 3/7s(t+10/60)  --------- [2]

st = 3s/7(t+1/6)

st = 3st/7 + 3s/42

4st/7 = s/14

t = s/14 * 7/4s = 1/8 hr = 7.5 min.
