Ethan has an interesting 10-day job offer. He can earn a flat rate of $100 per day or

get paid $1 the first day, $2 the second day, $4 the third day, $8 the fourth day, and
so on. Which payment plan should he take, the flat-rate plan or the increase-per-day
plan? Explain.

He should use the increase per day option because in this option he will earn 1209 dollars after 10 days and the other option will only give him 1000 dollars after 10 day
