Equation: $500 X 2^n where n = the number of days. So if n = 10 days and you start with $500 then,

$500 × 2^10 = $512,000

Equation: $0.01 x 2^n where n = the number of days. So if n = 30 days and you start with $0.01 then,

$0.01 × 2^30 = $10,737,418.24 or 2^30/100 = $10,737,418.24


The money doubles every day starting with day 1.

It's not my math. It's your math skills breh.

Double 500 for 10 Days
Day 01 = $500.00
Day 02 = $1000.00
Day 03 = $2000.00
Day 04 = $4000.00
Day 05 = $8000.00
Day 06 = $16,000.00
Day 07 = $32,000.00
Day 08 = $64,000.00
Day 09 = $128,000.00
Day 10 = $256,000.00

I was specifically speaking on the incorrect math for the penny but this 500 easily shows you are incorrect breh.
don't know what math you done learned.

Nah. You start with 500 and double it on day 1. Leaving you with 1000 at the end of day 1.

500 is the initial term.

The math you did is if n=0 corresponds to Day 1. Which is not the case. n=1 is day 1.

You should have stayed awake in class like me.

:dahell:

Double for 10 days. You didn't double on day 1. Your math is incorrect.
