Answer:

a.) April has 30 days

If you for option No.2, you would have:

[day, amount($)]

1, 0.01

2, 0.02

3, 0.04

4, 0.08

5, 0.16

6, 0.32

7, 0.64

8, 1.28

9, 2.56

10, 5.12

11, 10.24

12, 20.48

13, 40.96

14, 81.82

15. 163.48

16, 327.68

17, 655.36

18, 1310.72

19, 2621.44

20, 5242.88

21, 10,485.76

22, 20,971.52

23, 41,943.04

24, 83,886.08

25, 167,772.16

26, 335,544.32

27, 671,088.64

28, 1,342,177.28

29, 2,684,354.56

30, 5,368,709.12

Option 2 grants you more than 5 times as much as Option A and is therefore obviously better.

b.) A diagram would show first a slow rise, than a steeper and steeper rise, then would almost growvertically. exponential growth

#coronatime

The most elegant form to describe the given numbers would simply be

$=1*2^x

You start with one, eich doubles after a day (x=1). x is the number of days and how often you multiply by 2

c.) Wasn't sure without calculating, but I guessed Opt.2, because it seemed that one should be tricked into choosing Opt.1

Have a nice day

Brainliest would be appreciated
