Mary's average speed is 0.42 meters/second.

Explanation:

Mary's total travel was 250 meters and the elapsed time was 10 minutes, equivalent to 600 seconds.

d = displacement = 80 meters + 125 meters + 45 meters = 250 meters                  

t = time = 10 minutes . 60 seconds/minute = 600 seconds

We can obtain now the average speed:

s = average speed = displacement / time = 250 meters / 600 seconds ≅ 0.4167 ≅ 0.42
