Antonio burns 75 calories for every
1 answer:
300 calories are burned for 60 minutes
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that, Antonio burns 75 calories for every 15 minutes he rides his bicycle
To find: calories burned if he rides his bicycle for 60 minutes
From given information,
For every 15 minutes, 75 calories is burned
Therefore, for 1 minute,
So in 1 minute, 5 calories are burned
We have to find the calories burned for 60 minutes
Let "x" be the calories burned for 60 minutes
1 minute = 5 calories
60 minutes = x calories
This forms a proportion and we can solve the sum by cross multiplying
Thus 300 calories are burned for 60 minutes

Well, parallel lines have the same exact slope, so hmmm what's the slope of the one that runs through <span>(0, −3) and (2, 3)?

so, we're really looking for a line whose slope is 3, and runs through -1, -1
