The table shows the distance Mr Lim jogged each day over a period of 4 days. The distance Mr Lim jogged follows a pattern. Based on the pattern, what is the distance Mr Lim jogged on Day 9?
| Day |
1 |
2 |
3 |
4 |
| Distance jogged |
200 m |
425 m |
650 m |
875 m |
Pattern for the distance jogged:
Day 1: 200 + 0 x 225 = 200 m
Day 2: 200 + 1 x 225 = 425 m
Day 3: 200 + 2 x 225 = 650 m
Day 4: 200 + 3 x 225 = 875 m
Formula:
Distance jogged = 400 + (Day number - 1) x 225
Distance jogged on Day 9
= 200 + (9 - 1) x 225
= 200 + 8 x 225
= 2000 m
Answer(s): 2000 m
