Answer:
She will cycle 85.169 miles in the third week.
(round if needed)
Step-by-step explanation:
56÷100=0.56 (this is 1%)
0.56 x 15 + 56 = 64.4 (you find 15% then add 56 (the original amount) because it's an increase of 15%)
repeat for the other 3 weeks
64.4÷100=0.644
0.644 x 15 + 64.4 = 74.06
74.06÷100=0.7406
0.7406 x 15 + 74.06 = 85.169
Simple, rewrite this equation, in y=mx+b form.
Move over the 5x, making it look like, -y=-5x+14
Then, just simply divide by the negative one in front of the y.
y=5x-14.
I believe the answer is 2 :) .
