Question

you bike 4 miles on the first day of your training 4.4 miles the secound day 5.3 miles the third day and 6.8 miles the fourth day if you continue this pattern how many miles do you bike the seventh day

Answer 1

We can see that the distances biked form an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 0.4:

4, 4.4, 5.3, 6.8, ...

To find the distance biked on the seventh day, we can continue this sequence for three more terms:

4, 4.4, 5.3, 6.8, 7.2, 7.7, 8.2

Therefore, you would bike 8.2 miles on the seventh day if you continue this pattern.
