Question

An athlete goes to the gym and runs on the treadmill, burning 300 calories. The athlete then lifts weights for x amount of hours, burning 50 calories per hour. Which equation represents the total (T) calories the athlete will burn

Answer 1

Answer:

T = 300 + 50x

Step-by-step explanation:

Tread mill calories burned = 300 calories

Weight lifting hours = x

Calories burned per hour during weight lifting = 50

Total calories burned :

Teadmill calories + weight lifting hours * calories burned per hour

T = 300 + 50x
