Someone please send help lol. I made a recursive statement for a project but I'm not exactly the best with solving them.

"Let's say you workout for 10 minutes a day. After each week, you add 5 more to this routine. After how many weeks will you be working out for 30 minutes a day?"

Respuesta :

Answer:

It would take 4 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this problem most easily by forming it into an equation. We could represent weeks as w.

Since you train 5 more minutes every week, we could represent that as 5w, showing that you work 5 minutes times the number of weeks you worked out.

The constant would be adding 10, since you started out working 10 minutes a day. Now lets just write the equation!

10+5w=30

All we have to do is solve.

Subtract 10 on both sides to cancel out the positive 10.

5w=20

Now just divide both sides by 5 to isolate the w.

w=4

It would take him 4 weeks

Hope this helps!
