A store had 250 bottles of water. Each week, 40% of the bottles were sold and 48 new bottles arrived in shipments. Which recursive function best represents the number of bottles of water in the store? f(n) = f(n - 1) • 0.6 + 48, n > 0 f(n) = 250 - f(n - 1) • 0.4 + 48, n > 0 f(n) = f(n - 1) • 0.4 + 48, n > 0 f(n) = 250 - f(n - 1) • 0.6 + 48, n > 0

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

f(n) = f(n-1) * r

OpenStudy (lena772):

what is r in the question

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Your rate 40% = .4

OpenStudy (lena772):

f(n)=f(n-1)*0.4 so this means the answer is either B or C right

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Why would it be B

OpenStudy (lena772):

oh nvm I didn't see the 250-, it's C
