Mark is increasing his exercise routine by running and walking at least 4 miles each day. His goal is to burn a minimum of 1,500 calories from this exercise. Walking burns 270 calories/mile and running burns 650 calories. Could he meet his goal by walking 3 miles and running 1 mile?

Sagot :

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (270 * 3) + (650 * 1)

2. 810 + 650

3. 1,460 miles. Therefore, by doing this, Mark would have trekked 1,460 miles.

4. 1500 > 1460, so Mark would not meet his goal by doing this.
