2 |
3 |
4 |
Distance jogged |
250 m |
325 m |
400 m |
475 m |
Pattern for the distance jogged:
Day 1: 250 + 0 x 75 = 250 m
Day 2: 250 + 1 x 75 = 325 m
Day 3: 250 + 2 x 75 = 400 m
Day 4: 250 + 3 x 75 = 475 m
Formula:
Distance jogged = 400 + (Day number - 1) x 75
Distance jogged on Day 10
= 250 + (10 - 1) x 75
= 250 + 9 x 75
= 925 m
Answer(s): 925 m
