Solve the following problem. Round off the final answer to three decimal places.
A popular web site state that a 200 pound person will burn 450 calories/hour bicycling
(moderate effort) and 650 calories/hour rock climbing (ascending). A 150 pound person
decides to start a training routine in which she will bicycle for 45 minutes, 3 times a week and
rock climb for 1.50 hours every weekend. How many calories will she have burned after 8 weeks
of training (assuming she consumes at the same rate)?
Please write out the answer, or type it in a way that shows in equation form, thank you!
