@vishweshshrimali5 - Tagging you here because I would love to see the solution of this problem.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is this a badly written question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Answer choices are

OpenStudy (vishweshshrimali5):

First of all; Can you tell me what does \(a_n\) here stands for ?

OpenStudy (vishweshshrimali5):

*stand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the term in the geometric sequence

OpenStudy (vishweshshrimali5):

Okay so in the graph the y-axis represents \(\large{a_n}\) and x-axis represents n. Okay first of all plug in the values of n from graph in each option's formula one by one and calculate the corresponding value of \(a_n\), verify it from the graph. If it matches it MAY be true but if does not then it MUST be incorrect. By this way, continue short listing the possible correct options till you have only one correct sequence formula.

OpenStudy (vishweshshrimali5):

Can you do this part ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Um is it 3rd choice because it crosses on 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C or A*

OpenStudy (vishweshshrimali5):

Yeah great work

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which one is it?

OpenStudy (vishweshshrimali5):

It may be A or C for now. Now we have to find the average rate of change only then we can tell the answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-3 because its going down?

OpenStudy (vishweshshrimali5):

Great you figured it out. Its A

OpenStudy (anonymous):
