Answer:

a) see the attached spreadsheet (table)

b) Calculate, for a 10-year horizon; Computate for a longer horizon.

c) Year 13; no

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The attached table shows net income projections for the two companies. Calculate's increases by 0.5 million each year; Computate's increases by 15% each year. The result is rounded to the nearest dollar.

b) After year 4, Computate's net income is increasing by more than 0.5 million per year, so its growth is faster and getting faster yet. However, in the first 10 years, Calculate's net income remains higher than that of Computate. If we presume that some percentage of net income is returned to investors, then Calculate may provide a better return on investment.

The scenario given here is only interested in the first 10 years. However, beyond that time frame (see part C), we find that Computate's income growth far exceeds that of Calculate.

c) Extending the table through year 13, we see that Computate's net income exceeds Calculate's in that year. It continues to remain higher as long as the model remains valid.

Based on the hints of distinguishing between radical and non-radical numbers, we have the following lists:

$\sqrt{3}$ , $2.\overline{2}$ , 2.5, $\sqrt{5}$
3.01, $3.\overline{01}$ , $3.\overline{1}$ , $\sqrt{9}$
$-4.\overline{1}$ , - 4.1, 4.01, $\sqrt{17}$
- 2.5, $-\sqrt{5}$ , $\sqrt{6}$ , 2.5

<h3>How to order numbers from least to greatest</h3>

In this question we must order sets of numbers in ascending order. A hint consists in comparing non-radical numbers with the closest radical numbers whose results are integers.

In consequence, we obtain the following orders:
