Question

Jim runs ______ miles and bikes _______ miles in 5 weeks. The ordered pair would be ______

1. choose answer 40, 50, 55, 60,
2. choose answer 40, 50, 55, 60,
3. choose answer (60, 50) (40, 60) (5, 40) (60, 5)

Answer 1

To find out how many miles Jim runs and bikes in 5 weeks, we can multiply the miles he runs and bikes per week by the number of weeks.

1. Running:

   • Weekly running distance: 8 miles
   • Total running distance in 5 weeks: 8 miles/week * 5 weeks = 40 miles

2. Biking:

   • Weekly biking distance: 12 miles
   • Total biking distance in 5 weeks: 12 miles/week * 5 weeks = 60 miles

So, in 5 weeks:

• Jim runs 40 miles and bikes 60 miles.

The ordered pair representing how many miles Jim runs and bikes in 5 weeks would be (40, 60).

Now, completing the sentence:

Jim runs 40 miles and bikes 60 miles in 5 weeks. The ordered pair would be (40, 60).
