Deon served a goal to ride his bicycle 310 miles in a month. he has biked 145 miles so far. if there are 4 days left in the month about how many miles should deon ride each day to reach his goal? explain

41.25 miles should be covered per day to reach his goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total miles to be done in a month = 310 miles

Miles already biked so far = 145 miles

Miles left to be covered = (310-145)= 165

No of days left = 4

Miles to be ride each day=

step-by-step explanation:

this can be solved first with pythagorean theorem, which tells us to square both legs of the triangle and sum it. this will be equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

the hypotenuse is the side "opposite" the 90 degree angle, which is x.

so we can write using pythagorean theorem,

simplifying:

to further simplify this radical, we need to use the property  

thus
