Answer:

From mile marker 1 to mile marker 4  26 minutes

The average speed was  0,115 miles/minute

From mile marker 9 to finish the race average speed was 0,105 miles/minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Mark took     6 minutes from marker 1  to marker 2    ( 1 mile in 6 minutes)

and  20 minutes from marker 2  to marker 4   ( 2 miles in 20 minutes )

Then Mark took  26 minutes to get to marker 4 from marker 1 ( 3 miles)

then average speed is  3 / 26   =   0,115 miles/minute

71 minutes after starting the race Mark passed marker 9

Average speed    9 / 71    =   0,126  miles/minute

Mark complete the race in 110 minutes

Then   Mark run 4,1 miles  ( 13,1 - 9  =  4.1 )  from marker 9 to the end  in         110 - 71 = 39 minutes at the average speed of  4,1 /39  miles /minute

4,1 / 39  =  0,105 miles/minute
