1. Would you rather have $0.10 each day for 10 days or would you rather receive a penny on the first day and double that amount everyday for 10 days? Think about this…… But do not answer out loud yet..

With your partner, QUIETLY determine how much money you would receive, depending on which decision you made on the opening question. You must write down your steps to find this amount in a clear and logical way. We will discuss your strategies as a class in a few minutes. Your steps should follow the following format: K : What do I KNOW? Based on the problem, I know that... W: What do I WANT to do, find, or figure out? I am trying to find or figure out... C: CONDITIONS. Are there are special conditions? (e.g. that you want a penny which doubles each day for 10 days or…you want $0.10 each day for 10 days)

4. Now, determine how much money you will have at the end of 1000 days with your same partner. Use the same format for your steps: K: What do I KNOW? Based on the problem, I know that... W: What do I WANT to do, find, or figure out? I am trying to find or figure out... C: CONDITIONS. Are there are special conditions?(e.g. that you want a penny which doubles each day for 1000 days)

7. Lastly the Power Property: when you are raising a base with an exponent to another power (exponent)…..keep the base and multiply the “power
