Ok so because on the first day he rode 2 miles then on the second he rode 2.4 miles. He increased his distance by. 4 miles, then on the 3rd day he rode 3.2 miles that means he just increased it by. 8 then it increases by 1.6. this increase is x2 each time he goes back to ride. so doing it the long way u would get

1=2

+.4

2=2.4

+.8

3=3.2

+1.6

4=4.8

+3.2

5=8
