Question

how would you find the growth rate of a set of numbers?

Answer 1

for example, 4, 12, 36, 108

Answer 2

The first example is a geometric sequence, and every number is being multiplied by 6.
Common ratio is 6

Answer 3

they are being multiplied by 3 though..

Answer 4

318/53 = 6
53* 6 = 318
318*6 =1908

Answer 5

the second one is being multiplied by 3

Answer 6

12/4 = 3
3*4 = 12
3*12 = 36 and so on..

Answer 7

i see, but how would you turn that into a percentage? for example, the growth factor of 8,16, 32, 64 is two and the growth rate is 100%

Answer 8

3 = 300%

Answer 9

no....

Answer 10

wait sorry...i gtg

Answer 11
