Given that;

In a 60 minute boxing class Abby burns 480 calories.

The rate at which calories are burn during boxing is;

[tex]\begin{gathered} r_1=\frac{480}{60} \\ r_1=8\text{ calories/minute} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Also;

on a 40 minute run,Abby burns 440 calories,

The rate at which calories are burn during cycling is;

[tex]\begin{gathered} r_2=\frac{440}{40} \\ r_2=11\text{calories/minute} \end{gathered}[/tex]
