Answer:

A 190-pound person would burn 285 calories at the same rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Calories burn depends on the weight</em>

<em>Weight of first person = 160</em>

Calories burn for 160 pounds in 30 mins =  237

Calories burn rate for 1 pound in 30 mins = \frac{237}{160} = 1.5


<em>Calories burn for 190 Pound person would be:</em>

Weight of second person = 190

Calories burn for 190 pounds in 30 min:

As the burn rate of calories is same for the two persons:

= rate × weight

= 1.5 * 190

= 285 calories
