First, calculate how many steps Marjam still needs to take by subtracting the number of steps she has taken so far from her goal: 10,000 steps - 2,500 steps = <<10000-2500=7500>>7,500 steps
Then, divide that number by the number of hours remaining in the day to find how many steps she needs to take each hour: 7,500 steps / 10 hours = <<7500/10=750>>750 steps/hour. Answer: \boxed{750}.
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 a 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.

you sure?
Apologies for the error in my previous response. Let's calculate it correctly.
Since Marjam has already taken 2,500 steps, she still needs to take 10,000 - 2,500 = 7,500 steps.
Since there are 10 hours left in the day, Marjam needs to take 7,500 / 10 = 750 steps per hour for the rest of the day.
Since Marjam has already taken 2,500 steps, she still needs to take 10,000 - 2,500 = 7,500 steps.
Since there are 10 hours left in the day, Marjam needs to take 7,500 / 10 = 750 steps per hour for the rest of the day.
write the answer as an inequality
The answer can be written as 750 steps per hour <br> Inequality: x < 750, where x represents the number of steps taken each hour.
