The table shows the distance Mr Ee jogged each day over a period of 4 days. The distance Mr Ee jogged follows a pattern. Based on the pattern, what is the distance Mr Ee jogged on Day 9?
| Day |
1 |
2 |
3 |
4 |
| Distance jogged |
250 m |
500 m |
750 m |
1000 m |
Pattern for the distance jogged:
Day 1: 250 + 0 x 250 = 250 m
Day 2: 250 + 1 x 250 = 500 m
Day 3: 250 + 2 x 250 = 750 m
Day 4: 250 + 3 x 250 = 1000 m
Formula:
Distance jogged = 400 + (Day number - 1) x 250
Distance jogged on Day 9
= 250 + (9 - 1) x 250
= 250 + 8 x 250
= 2250 m
Answer(s): 2250 m
