A certain library assesses fines for due books as follows. On the first day that boook is overdue, the total fine is $0.1. For each additional day that the book is overdue, the total fine is either increased by $0.3 or doubled, whichever results in the lesser amount. What is the total fine for a book on the fourth day it is overdue? Answer: $0.7. 我选的是$0.8. 我的思路是: if increased by $0.3, on the fourth day: 0.1+0.3+0.3+0.3=1 if doubled: 0.1*2*2*2=0.8 取值小的那个,那么是$0.8 为什么prep给的答案是0.7呢?请大家帮忙解答一下,谢谢。 |
