From the given ordered pair representing Jacinda's progress, her speed is equal to 10 miles per hour. Letting x be the time it takes for Jacinda to catch up with Raj, the total distance Raj would travel is
1.5 + 4.5x
and Jacinda's total distance is 10x. Mathematically,
1.5 + 4.5x = 10x
The value of x from the equation is 0.27 hours. Therefore, Jacinda needs to run 2.7 miles to catch up with Raj.

so, we know the first term is 2, whilst the common difference is -5, therefore, that means, to get the next term, we subtract 5, or we "add -5" to the current term.
just a quick note on notation:
