Chapter 6.5, Problem 86E
A new resort in Costa Rica is managed by a retired math professor with a strange sense of humor. Patrons can choose one of three payment options. In each ease, the cost decreases each day, and you have to leave when it reaches zero. Option I: per-person cost is $200 the first day, then decreases by $25 every day. Option 2: per-person cost is $300 the first day, and in each successive day, you subtract 10 times the square of the number of days you’ve been there from the previous day’s cost. Option 3: per-person cost is $500 the first day and $250 the second day: in general, every day is half as much as the previous day.
- (a) Which option is the best if your primary’ goal is to spend the least amount of money? How much would you spend and for how many days?
- (b) Which option is best if your primary goal is to stay the longest? How long would you end up staying?
- (c) Which type of decline is illustrated by each option?

after one year is $300.00, how much money was invested at each rate?
