Jorge has read 7 chapters in his book already. He plans on reading 3 chapters each day from now on.

Complete the table to represent this situation

To create a table that represents Jorge's reading plan, we can track the number of chapters he reads each day, the cumulative total of chapters read, and the total number of chapters read over time.

Let's assume we want to display the data for the next several days.

We know that Jorge has already read 7 chapters and plans to read 3 additional chapters each day.

Here's a sample table for the next 7 days:

| Day | Chapters Read Today | Total Chapters Read | |-----|---------------------|---------------------| | 0 | 0 | 7 | | 1 | 3 | 10 | | 2 | 3 | 13 | | 3 | 3 | 16 | | 4 | 3 | 19 | | 5 | 3 | 22 | | 6 | 3 | 25 | | 7 | 3 | 28 |

Explanation:

  • Each row corresponds to one day.
  • The "Chapters Read Today" column shows how many chapters Jorge reads on that specific day (always 3 from day 1 onward).
  • The "Total Chapters Read" column adds the daily chapters to the total from previous days, starting with 7 chapters already read before day 1.

Feel free to extend the table for more days or change any parameters!
