Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

5 + 3x = -22

1.) Subtract 5 from itself, then from -22. That then cancels out the 5 on the left and gives you -27 on the right

3x = -27

2.) Divide 3x and -27 by 3 which is the coefficient in this problem.

x = -9

Given:
Week 6 = 14 miles
Week 5 = 1.5 miles less than week 6.

1.5 miles is the common difference.

Week 6 = 14 miles
Week 5 = 12.5 miles
Week 4 = 11 miles
Week 3 = 9.5 miles
Week 2 = 8 miles
Week 1 = 6.5 miles

f(t) = first term + common difference(t-1)
f(t) = 6.5 miles + 1.5 miles (t-1)

f(1) = 6.5 + 1.5(1-1)
f(1) = 6.5 miles

f(2) = 6.5 + 1.5(2-1)
f(2) = 6.5 + 1.5
f(2) = 8 miles
