You are offered a 30-day trial period at your dream job. However, the owner of the company is a little unusual so the pay options are non-traditional. They offer you three different pay options for the 30 days.

Option 1: $60,000 a day

Option 2: You make one penny the first day, two pennies the second day, four pennies the third day, eight pennies the fourth day, etc. (function: f(x) = 2x -1, Hint: this represents the number of pennies)

Option 3: On your first day of work, you get $1. On your second day of work, you get $4. On your third day of work, you get $9. On your fourth day of work, you get $16. It continues this way for 30 days and then once you've completed the 30 days you receive a completion bonus of $500,000.
