Question

How much will it contains of the bag weigh on the 21 day

Answer 1

According to the pattern, the number of kernel of corn is double every day, so we can conclude that the number of kernel of corn oN as a function of the days x is given by:

`N(x)=2^(x-1)`

For x = 21:

`N(21)=2^(21-1)=2^(20)=1048576`

Since each kernel corn weighs 0.07, the total weight is given by:

`\begin{gathered} Tw=0.07\cdot1048576 \\ Tw=73400.32g \end{gathered}`
