Answer 1

Cameron will do 79 jumping jacks on Sunday

Explanation:

So on Wednesday, he did 4 jumping jacks. On Thursday, he did 5 more jumping jacks than he did on Wednesday (9 total ). On Friday, the difference between Wednesday and Thursday doubled, and it has a difference of 10 new jumping jacks(19 total). On Saturday, the difference between Thursday and Friday doubled from 10 to 20, (39 total). So if the difference keeps up, which it should, The difference between Saturday and Sunday should double from the diffeerence from Friday to Saturday (a difference of 20). So if the difference is doubled, it will be a difference of 40. so 39+40=79.
