Marjam has a goal of taking at least 10,000 steps today. According to her pedometer, she got 2,500 steps in the morning. There are 10 hours left in the day. How many steps will she need to get each hour (assume she walks the same number of steps each hour) for the rest of the day to meet her goal? Solve this problem. Which number line most clearly communicates the solution?(1 point)

Question

Marjam has a goal of taking at least 10,000 steps today. According to her pedometer, she got 2,500 steps in the morning. There are 10 hours left in the day. How many steps will she need to get each hour (assume she walks the same number of steps each hour) for the rest of the day to meet her goal? Solve this problem. Which number line most clearly communicates the solution?(1 point)

Answer 1

To find out how many steps Marjam needs to get each hour for the rest of the day, we can subtract the steps she has already taken from her goal:

10,000 steps - 2,500 steps = 7,500 steps
Now, we can divide the remaining steps by the number of hours left in the day:
7,500 steps ÷ 10 hours = 750 steps
So, Marjam will need to get 750 steps each hour for the rest of the day to meet her goal.

The number line that most clearly communicates the solution would be the line that shows the steps taken in the morning (2,500 steps) and then increments of 750 steps for each hour left in the day.

Answer 2

So should the dog be open or lsed

Answer 3

The prompt does not mention anything about a dog, so it is unclear what you are referring to. Could you please provide more context or clarify your question?

Answer 4

I meant should the dot be open or closed

Answer 5

Based on the information provided in the question, if Marjam needs to get exactly 750 steps each hour for the rest of the day to meet her goal, the dot representing the solution on the number line should be closed. This is because Marjam needs to reach exactly 750 steps each hour to meet her goal. A closed dot indicates an inclusive or "equal to" value.
