@Slenderman

OpenStudy (slenderman):

i heard a call and i have arrived

OpenStudy (katecc379):

hello haha

OpenStudy (slenderman):

im leaning more towards b, your table seems to be going off a factor of 3, also your base number is 1

OpenStudy (katecc379):

you think for sure b? this lesson really confuses me

OpenStudy (lord_box):

You can see from the table that n is >= 1, which rules out A and C.

OpenStudy (lord_box):

To figure out whether it's B or D, plug in the n values and see which one matches up with the a_n value.

OpenStudy (katecc379):

so b?

OpenStudy (lord_box):

Did you plug in each n value and see if all three were correct?

OpenStudy (katecc379):

yes

OpenStudy (lord_box):

Can you show your work, please?

OpenStudy (katecc379):

oops sorry was doing them wrong, i got d this time

OpenStudy (lord_box):
