It is called being proportional,
Ex. so every three grapes you eat, i eat four
every 6 you eat, I eat 8, etc. etc.
Let the walker’s speed be W, then the biker’s is W+1.5W=2.5W. Difference in speed is 1.5W. Distance=speed times time, so 12.5=1.5W×1.5=2.25W, and W=12.5/2.25=1250/225=50/9=5.56 mph. The biker’s speed is 2.5W=125/9=13.89 mph to 2 Dec places.
(Note: “1.5 times faster than a walker’s speed” could not reasonably mean the biker’s speed=1.5W because this would give W=16.67 mph, which is very fast for a runner, let alone a walker (!), and a biker’s speed of 25mph.)
Answer:
The function is:
y = 150*x
where y is the number of calories consumed, and x is the number of pieces of candy consumed.
Now, the domain of a function is the possible values of x that you can input in the function.
For this particular case you can have:
x = 0 (no pieces candy)
x = 1 (one piece of candy)
x = 2 (two pieces of candy)
Notice that x can be only whole numbers because, in principle, you can't eat a fraction of a piece of candy.
So we only use x = whole numbers.
Then the domain of the function is equal to all the natural numbers plus the zero, or:
D = {x ∈ N ∪ {0}}
"x belongs to the union between the set of the natural numbers and the zero"
