My brother told me he will give me $.25 per day for 10 days OR he will give me $.01 then give me double the following day for 10 days. Which one is a better deal? How much money will I get at the end of 10 days if I accept the .25 per day?

How much money will I get at the end of the day if I accept the .01 then double the following day?

you will get more money if he gives you 1 cent per day then doubles it

Step-by-step explanation:

if your brother gives you 25 cents per day, at the end of 10 days you will have $2.50

if he gives you 1 cent per day then doubles it, this will be your daily earnings:

day 1- 0.01

day 2- 0.02

day 3-  0.04

day 4- 0.08

day 5- 0.16

day 6- 0.32

day 7- 0.64

day 8- 1.28

day 9- 2.56

day 10- 5.12

then when you add all of this up, you would recieve 10.23 cents at the end of day 10

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

x=5

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: solve one of the equations for one of the variables. let's solve the first equation for y:

step 2: substitute that equation into the other equation, and solve for x.

step 3: substitute x = 4 x = 4 x=4 into one of the original equations, and solve for y.
