Mona wants to run more than 60 miles this week. She ran a total of 24 miles during the first 4 days of the week. Which number line represents the number of miles Mona must run each day if she wants to meet her goal?

answer choices

x ≥ 10

x = 12

x > 10

x > 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete more than 60 miles a week.

After running 24 miles during the first 4 days

We are left with (7-4) days = 3 days

And also,

(60-24) miles to complete the weekly target

> 36 miles (more than 36miles)

Therefore, the number of miles needed to cover per day in the next 3 days is given as.

Rate > distance/time

Rate > 36miles/3days

Rate > 12 miles/day
