The table shows the distance Mr Teo jogged each day over a period of 4 days. The distance Mr Teo jogged follows a pattern. Based on the pattern, what is the distance Mr Teo jogged on Day 9?
Day |
1 |
2 |
3 |
4 |
Distance jogged |
450 m |
550 m |
650 m |
750 m |
Pattern for the distance jogged:
Day 1: 450 + 0 x 100 = 450 m
Day 2: 450 + 1 x 100 = 550 m
Day 3: 450 + 2 x 100 = 650 m
Day 4: 450 + 3 x 100 = 750 m
Formula:
Distance jogged = 400 + (Day number - 1) x 100
Distance jogged on Day 9
= 450 + (9 - 1) x 100
= 450 + 8 x 100
= 1250 m
Answer(s): 1250 m
