Question

Mark is in training for a marathon race. He has been training by running 10 miles each day. He will be increasing his running by this weekly formula: y = 10 (1.1 )x, where y is the number of miles he will run each day, x weeks from now. Compute the distance Mark will run each day for 52 weeks (one year) from now using the formula. Does this distance seem reasonable?

yes


no

Answer 1

Answer:

  no

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use a spreadsheet to create a table of the daily distances. They are shown on the attached graph by week number. For week 52, Mark's formula will tell him to run 1420 miles per day.

This distance is not reasonable.
