Answer 1

Answer:

c. 27 40.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 is "read and understand the problem." Step 2 is "read the answer choices."

To choose the correct answer here, you only need to know that exponential growth functions are non-decreasing. The next y-values cannot be smaller than the values already shown.

_____

If you insist on doing some calculation, ...

Comparing adjacent values, you see that the common ratio is 3/2.

• 18 × 3/2 = 27
• 27 × 3/2 = 40.5
