During exercise, the recommended maximum heart rate in beats per minute is modeled by the formula M = 176 – 0.8A, where M is the maximum heart rate and A is the person’s age. Approximately, at what age would you have a recommended heart rate in beats per minute of 135?

A. 25 years
B. 39 years
C. 51 years
D. 53 years

3 answers

To solve for the age A when the recommended maximum heart rate is 135, we can plug in M = 135 into the formula and solve for A:

135 = 176 - 0.8A

0.8A = 41

A = 51.25

Rounded to the nearest whole number, the answer is C. 51 years.
