29) A radio station offers a $100 prize on the first day of a contest. Each day that the prize money is
not awarded, $50 is added to the prize amount. If a contestant wins on the 40th day of the contest,
how much money will be awarded?

Respuesta :

Answer:$2,100

Step-by-step explanation: The equation for this would be 100+50(40). You do 50(40) because if it took forty days for the $ to be awarded, and they add on $50 each day it’s not rewarded, then you would multiply the two numbers together. 50(40)=2,000. 100 is a fixed amount (I think that’s what it’s called) because it was automatically given to the winner. $2,000+$100=$2,100
