The troupe’s account balance first reached $500 on Day 4. The last day the account balance was $500 was
Day 8.
(a) Determine C(5), C(6), and C(7). Explain how you determined these amounts.
(b) Estimate C(1), C(2), and C(3). Explain how you determined these amounts.
(c) The stage manager said that the amount of money taken out of the account each day between Day 8
and Day 11 was the same amount of money put into the account each day between Day 0 and Day 4.
Recall that Day 11 is when the balance first reached $0. Without doing any calculations, how could
you show the stage manager was incorrect?
