4 |
Distance jogged |
500 m |
650 m |
800 m |
950 m |
Pattern for the distance jogged:
Day 1: 500 + 0 x 150 = 500 m
Day 2: 500 + 1 x 150 = 650 m
Day 3: 500 + 2 x 150 = 800 m
Day 4: 500 + 3 x 150 = 950 m
Formula:
Distance jogged = 400 + (Day number - 1) x 150
Distance jogged on Day 11
= 500 + (11 - 1) x 150
= 500 + 10 x 150
= 2000 m
Answer(s): 2000 m
