Given that Blake's average for the 9-game season is 280 passing yards per game, the total passing yard for the 9 games will be 280x9 which is equal to 2520. If we multiply this value by 1.25 because of the 25% increase, the answer would be 3150. Thus, the difference from this value to the breaking record is 36.

Answer:

The answer is 36 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, let us recall the following.

Blake plays football, his average for last year = 280 passing yard per game.

The school record for total  passing yards in a season is = 3114 yards

During the 9 game season, blake will increase his passing yards per game of =25%

Now, let us solve for how close will he break the record.

1.25*280*9- 3114

=36 yards

Blake will break his record by 36 yards
