To find out how many steps Marjam needs to get each hour for the rest of the day, we can subtract the steps she already took in the morning from her goal of 10,000 steps.
10,000 - 2,500 = 7,500
Now we need to divide this total number of steps by the number of hours left in the day:
7,500 / 10 = 750
Therefore, Marjam will need to get 750 steps each hour for the rest of the day to meet her goal.
The graph that most clearly communicates this solution would be a bar graph that shows the number of steps taken in the morning (2,500) and the number of steps needed for each of the remaining 10 hours (750 each). The graph should clearly label the x-axis as the hours and the y-axis as the number of steps.
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 graph most clearly communicates
the solution? (1 point)
