The formula for the sum of the a finite geometric series is this:
Sn = a((1-r^n) / (1-r))
The given values are:
n = 30
a = 0.5 mi
r = 1.10 (10% more each day)
S30 = 0.5 ((1-1.10^30) / (1-1.10))
S30 = 82.25 mi
After 30 days, he will have traveled 82.25 miles.
142=120% of x
120% of x= 1.2x
142=1.2x
142/1.2 = 1.2x/1.2
x= 118.33
The unknown number should be 118.33, rounded to 118 or so.

Since 1973, social security numbers have been issued by our central office. The first three (3) digits of a person's social security number are determined by the ZIP Code of the mailing address shown on the application for a social security number. Prior to 1973, social security numbers were assigned by our field offices. The number merely established that his/her card was issued by one of our offices in that State.
