Thank you so much, you too.
To get the *percent increase* from week 1 to week 2, we calculate the change in distance from week 1 to week 2 (13.5 - 12.5 = 1 mile) over the week 1 distance (12.5 miles). Doing that, we find that Matthew increased his distance by
1/12.5 = 0.08, or 8%
We’re given that he’ll increase his distance by the same percentage from week 2 to 3, so to find his week 3 distance, we can find 8% of the week 2 distance and add that on. 8% of 13.5 miles is 0.08 x 13.5 = 1.08 miles, so by week 3, he’ll be running 13.5 + 1.08 = 14.58 miles.
So your formula is y1 - y2 divided by x1 - x2. Start off with the -5, 14 as your x1 and y1 because its the biggest out of the other one. So do 14 - 2 = 12 so thats your top part and -5 - -1 which is -4 so your fraction will be 12/-4 or you have -3 as a whole number
