An athlete is training for a marathon and is gradually increasing the distance she runs each week. Before training begins, she can run 20 kilometers per day. Her coach estimates that the distance she can run per day will increase at a constant rate over time.
The coach predicts that after 8 weeks of training, she will be running 44 kilometers per day.
Select for D1 the distance, in kilometers per day, that the athlete will be able to run after 2 weeks of training and select for D2 the distance, in kilometers per day, that the athlete will be able to run after 5 weeks of training. Make only two selections, one in each column.

Official Solution:
The athlete starts at 20 kilometers per day. After 8 weeks, she is expected to run 44 kilometers per day. Since her distance increases at a constant rate:
\(\frac{44 – 20}{8} = \frac{24}{8} = 3\) kilometers per week.
After 2 weeks:
20 + 2 * 3 = 26 kilometers per day (D1 = 26 km).
After 5 weeks:
20 + 5 * 3 = 35 kilometers per day (D2 = 35 km).
Correct answer:
D1 "26"
D2 "35"

Ok guys this may be a stupid logic but.......
44 km after 8 weeks
Check the answers
Go backwards 44 minus 35 is 9 and 35 minus 9 is 26
This is my logic idk if I’m wrong
