Toby exercises 14 hours a week. John exercises 20% more than Toby and Jenny exercises two more hours than John. Which expression represents how much Jenny exercises? (w represents weeks)

Respuesta :

John exercised 20% more than Toby. So the number of hours that John exercises per week is 14 + 0.2(14) = 14 + 2.8 = 16.8.

Jenny exercises two more hours than John. So the number of hours that Jenny exercises per week is 16.8 + 2 = 18.8.

So an expression representing the number of hours that Jenny exercises after w weeks is 18.8w.

the answer is 18.8w

Toby 14w

John 14(1.2)w

Jenny 14(1.2)w + 2w

14(1.2)w + 2w

16.8w + 2w

18.8w
