The table shows the distance Mr Ong jogged each day over a period of 4 days. The distance Mr Ong jogged follows a pattern. Based on the pattern, what is the distance Mr Ong jogged on Day 8?
| Day |
1 |
2 |
3 |
4 |
| Distance jogged |
300 m |
475 m |
650 m |
825 m |
Pattern for the distance jogged:
Day 1: 300 + 0 x 175 = 300 m
Day 2: 300 + 1 x 175 = 475 m
Day 3: 300 + 2 x 175 = 650 m
Day 4: 300 + 3 x 175 = 825 m
Formula:
Distance jogged = 400 + (Day number - 1) x 175
Distance jogged on Day 8
= 300 + (8 - 1) x 175
= 300 + 7 x 175
= 1525 m
Answer(s): 1525 m
