a(8x + 7) = 4x + 3.5

8ax + 7a = 4x + 3.5

equating coefficients of x : 8a = 4 so a = 1/2

also 7a = 3.5 so a = 1/2

The value of a is 1/2

Caroline resting heart is 52 beats per minute (bpm). When she starts running her heart rate increases 1.25% each second until it

horsena [70]

Answer:74.55 beat per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Heart beat is 52 beat per minute

i.e. $B=\frac{52}{60}$ beat per sec

If heart rate is increases 1.25 % each sec

suppose B is the heart beat at first second therefore heat beat at 2 nd second

$B_2=B+1.25 \% B$

$B_2=B(1+1.25 \% )$

For 3 rd sec

$B_3=B(1+1.25\%)+1.25\%B(1+1.25\%)$

$B_3=B(1+1.25\%)^2$

similarly for 3 sec

$B_{30}=B(1+1.25\%)^{29}$

$B_{30}=1.433B$

$B_{30}=1.242\ \text{beat per second }$

$B_{30}=74.55\ \text{beat per minute}$
