This one is easy. They drove 250 miles every day, do you know how to explain that mathematically?
OpenStudy (jameshorton):

lets d be the number of days after the first day
Total distance = 300 + 200 * d

200*d can be written as 200d and still mean the same thing, for future problems :)
OpenStudy (jameshorton):
wat he said was wrong
OpenStudy (genericnoodles):
Exactly what he just said, that's the answer.
OpenStudy (genericnoodles):
Sure about that?
OpenStudy (jameshorton):
none of them start off with 200 it only start off with 250

300+250d is the same exact thing if you switch the numbers. So 250d+300. I still feel like you don't understand but I don't know how to explain it further. Good luck.
