Question

The formula for całculating the number of calories burned while swimming at a moderate rate is C 2.9wt, where C represents the number of calories burned, w represents your weight in pounds, and t represents the time you swim in hours. How could you use this formula to help you determine how long you should swim in order to burn a specific number of calories?

Answer 1

You would input your weight first then multiply 2.9 by your weight and put that as the denominator. For the numerator you would put how many colonies you want burnt. The answer to that is what you would put for t.
