The table shows the distance Mr Leng jogged each day over a period of 4 days. The distance Mr Leng jogged follows a pattern. Based on the pattern, what is the distance Mr Leng jogged on Day 7?
Day |
1 |
2 |
3 |
4 |
Distance jogged |
150 m |
375 m |
600 m |
825 m |
Pattern for the distance jogged:
Day 1: 150 + 0 x 225 = 150 m
Day 2: 150 + 1 x 225 = 375 m
Day 3: 150 + 2 x 225 = 600 m
Day 4: 150 + 3 x 225 = 825 m
Formula:
Distance jogged = 400 + (Day number - 1) x 225
Distance jogged on Day 7
= 150 + (7 - 1) x 225
= 150 + 6 x 225
= 1500 m
Answer(s): 1500 m
