Answer:

A. 50, 88, 145, 227

Explanation:

The correct option would be option A.

<u>When something grows exponentially, it means the growth increased at a high rate. More specifically, each rate of increase results in more or less doubling of the preceding rate. For example, if the current value of growth rate is 2 for a substance that is growing exponentially, the next growth rates will be 4, 8, 16, etc.</u>

<em>In this particular illustration, the only option that best fit into an exponential system is option A in which the growth rate more or less doubles each time from 50 to 88, from 88 to 145, and then from 145 to 227.</em>
