Explanation:

To determine Julie's time, we know that a faster time in a race means a shorter duration. Connor's time is 48.72 minutes. So Julie's time must be less than 48.72 minutes.

• Option A (49.05) is greater than 48.72, so it's slower.
• Option B (48.72) is equal, not faster.
• Option C (48.81) is greater than 48.72, so it's slower.
• Option D (48.29) is less than 48.72, so it's faster.

Answer:

D. 48.29 minutes
