The number of calories burned in 1 hour on a treadmill is a function of the speed of the treadmill. The average person walking on a treadmill at a speed of 2.5 miles per hour will burn about 210 calories. At 6 miles per hour the average person will burn about 370 calories. Let c be the calories burned in 1 hour and be the speed of 45.7 the treadmill 370-210 160 3.5 -2.5 a) Using ordered pairs of the form (SC), write a linear function as that fits the data. b) Using the function from part a), determine the number of calories burned at a speed of 5 mph. 2 E
