Damon's father pays him one dollar to start the work and doubles his pay for each hour of work. Write a function that

models this situation.

p(x) = $1*(2)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the father pays him $1 for only starting the work, and for each hour, the payment is doubled.

So after the first hour, the payment wil be 2*$1 = $2.

After the second hour, the payment will be 2*(2*$1) = $1*(2)^2

After another hour, the payment will be 2*($1*(2)^2) = $1*(2)^3

We already can see the pattern here, after x hours, the payment will be:

p(x) = $1*(2)^x

This is the function that models this situation.

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
