Question

which of these schedules follow the guidelines for a teenagers daily physical activity? select the two correct answers.

a. 30 minutes playing soccer, 20 minutes climbing a rock wall, and 10 minutes practicing yoga
b. 15 minutes raking leaves and 15 minutes walking
c. 30 minutes practicing gymnastics and 30 minutes cycling
d. 15 minutes washing dishes, 10 minutes shopping at the mall, and 10 minutes dancing

Explanation:

To determine the correct answers, we analyze each option based on the guidelines for a teenager's daily physical activity (which typically recommend at least 60 minutes of moderate - to - vigorous physical activity per day):

• Option A: The total time is \(30 + 20+10=60\) minutes. Playing soccer, climbing a rock wall, and practicing yoga are all physical activities. So this schedule meets the guideline.
• Option B: The total time is \(15 + 15 = 30\) minutes, which is less than the recommended 60 minutes. So this does not meet the guideline.
• Option C: The total time is \(30+30 = 60\) minutes. Practicing gymnastics and cycling are physical activities. So this schedule meets the guideline.
• Option D: Washing dishes and shopping at the mall are not typically considered moderate - to - vigorous physical activities. The only physical activity here is dancing for 10 minutes, so the total effective physical activity time is less than 60 minutes. So this does not meet the guideline.

Answer:

A. 30 minutes playing soccer, 20 minutes climbing a rock wall, and 10 minutes practicing yoga
C. 30 minutes practicing gymnastics and 30 minutes cycling
