Question

I won a sweepstakes and will receive money every week for 52 weeks. The first week, I will receive $500 and every week after that I will receive $50 more than I received the previous week. How much money will I receive over the course of the 52 Weeks?

25 Points.

Answer 1

$3100

Explanation:

You can determine this by multiplying 52 by 50, because you get 50 dollars for 52 weeks, then add 500 to it, because you get 500 dollars at first. 52 times 50 is equal to 2600, and 2600 + 500 is equal to 3100. You will receive $3100 over the course of 52 weeks.
