Part A: The expression for the total number of minutes Mario volunteers each year at the animal shelter = (405/y) x 365
Part B: The simplified form of the expression for the total number of minutes Mario volunteers each year at the animal shelter = (147825/y) minutes
Number of days Mario volunteers each month at the animal shelter = 1
Number of hours Mario cleans for y days = 5.5 hours
Number of hours Mario each day = 5.5/y
Number of minutes Mario uses to walk dogs for y days = 75 minutes
Number of hours Mario uses to walk dogs for y days= 75/60
Number of hours Mario uses to walk dogs for y days= 1.25 hours
Number of hours Mario uses to walk dogs each day= 1.25/y
Total number of hours Mario volunteers in a day = Number of hours Mario cleans each day + Number of hours Mario uses to walk dogs
Total number of hours Mario volunteers in a day = 5.5/y + 1.25/y
Total number of hours Mario volunteers in a day = 6.75/y
Convert the number of hours to minutes
1 hour = 60 minutes
Total number of minutes Mario volunteers in a day = (6.75/y) x 60
Total number of minutes Mario volunteers in a day = (405/y) minutes
Number of days in 1 year = 365
The expression for the total number of minutes Mario volunteers each year at the animal shelter = (405/y) x 365
The simplified form of the expression for the total number of minutes Mario volunteers each year at the animal shelter = (147825/y) minutes
