in 2011, an Action Comics no. 1, featuring first appearance of superman, was sold at auction for $2,161,000. The comic book was
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Price of book in 1938 = $ 0.10

Price of book in 2011 = $ 2,161,000

Number of years over 1938-2011 = 2011 - 1938 = 73

Annual increase in the price = ((\frac{\text{Price of book in 2011}}{\text{Price of book in 1938}}) ^ \frac{1}{\text{Number of years}} - 1 ) * 100

⇒ Annual increase in the price = ((\frac{2,161,000}{0.1}) ^ \frac{1}{73} - 1 ) * 100

⇒ Annual increase in the price = (1.260302283  - 1 ) × 100

⇒ Annual increase in the price = 0.260302283 × 100

⇒ Annual increase in the price = 26.0302283 %

⇒ Annual increase in the price = 26%

Hence, the comic book price increased by 26% annually

klasskru [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using an online calculator, I was able to find that one pattern is

a_{n} = a_{n-1} + 14 * 3^{n-1} . Finding a recursive sequence is generally based on guess and check, so there isn't much explanation to obtaining one
